Vaginal posterior prolapse

Sometimes women turn to a gynecologist about the fact that they are disturbed by the unpleasant sensations in the vagina that occur when the muscles of the anterior abdominal wall contract or contract, and sometimes even when they are calm, which can lead to various problems in sexual life. The occurrence of such complaints is usually associated with such a pathology as the displacement of internal organs down (scientific prolapse). In this condition, the back or front wall of the vagina protrudes, so there is a feeling of the presence of a foreign body in the vagina. The disease requires examination and treatment in an operative way in a severe case - vaginal plastic helps to cope with this condition and solve an unpleasant problem.

The omission of the posterior wall of the vagina may occur due to constipation in women and when changing the normal position of the rectum. A gynecologist at the examination will determine how severe the case is. If the stage of the disease is insignificant, it will be enough to perform daily special exercises to strengthen the internal muscles and return the organ to its place. If this does not help, then you need to do plastic surgery.

The omission of the posterior wall of the vagina can be caused by the following reasons:

  • numerous births;
  • lifting weights and performing hard work in the postpartum period;
  • birth injuries;
  • obesity;
  • increase in abdominal pressure,

Simultaneously with the prolapse of the walls of the vagina , the prolapse of the uterus is often also detected (the reasons can be very different). These troubles are associated with weakness of the ligaments and internal muscles, the woman's age also affects the condition of her organs. These problems require combined treatment, namely the performance of several operations at once: vaginal plasty with uterine ventrofixation (this is the suspension of the uterus to the sacrum using a laparoscope on special threads) and the operation TVT (transvaginal support thread). These methods eliminate the problem of urinary incontinence.

Uterine prolapse. Surgery and tips for plastic

First you need to get an appointment with a surgeon, consult with him. The doctor will examine you with the help of special mirrors on the gynecological chair and determine the condition of the anterior and posterior walls of the vagina at rest, as well as during straining. Based on the examination, the specialist decides on the nature and extent of the operation (lowering the back wall of the vagina requires plastic, as well as the anterior). After the examination, the doctor will discuss with you the nuances of the operation, a special preparation plan for it and will answer all your questions.

Plastic surgery process

Vaginal plasty is performed under general anesthesia (anesthesia) or under spinal anesthesia. It all depends on the nature and extent of the proposed operation. If only vaginal plastic surgery is indicated, it is best to use spinal anesthesia. And if it is planned to perform additional ventrofixation of the uterus, then general anesthesia is needed (in other words, anesthesia).

The omission of the posterior wall of the vagina is also fraught with its loss. Usually this condition develops very slowly. How to suspect him? At the beginning of the disease, you can feel pain during straining, during intercourse, unpleasant soreness in the lower abdomen and in the lower back can occur. Urinary incontinence and constipation can also be distress signals. When the pathology begins to develop, there will be a feeling that something is interfering inside, the mucous membrane will become rough and will be easily traumatized. Therefore, you do not need to wave your hand at yourself and start the situation, it is better to contact a specialist as soon as possible.
