Pelvic Organ Prolapse Queenstown

Are things feeling different down there? Maybe its after a long walk or an extended day at work that you feel tired and heavy between your legs. Pelvic Organ Prolapse is a common condition for women, with 1 in 2 experiencing some degree of prolapse in their lifetime if they have had a vaginal delivery. Although its extremely common it is often not discussed it can have a significant impact of a women’s quality of everyday life.

Pelvic Organ Prolapse is when the bladder, bowel or uterus descend into the vagina. This often results in the sensation of a bulge, heaviness or dragging feeling that can be worse at the end of the day. Other symptoms such as constipation or difficulty in emptying your bladder may also be experienced.
