Q&A: Has anyone ever had a severe prolapsed uterus after childbirth? Did it go back on it's own? or surgery?


Has anyone ever had a severe prolapsed uterus after childbirth? Did it go back on it's own? or surgery?
Best answer:
My mom did, but hers was so bad that she had to have a Hysterectomy. If your doc thinks it will go back go it's own, you shoudl trust that, though I have never heard of that. If it is not too severe, maybe he is right. Good luck, try not to think worst case scenario, if you don't have confidence in what your doctor is telling you, probably best to get a second opinion from another OBGYN. I only say that because they are experts and can help you with possible treatment options too. I think when it comes to medical problems, though it may be the same issue as someone else, everyone's is a little unique and you shouldn't scare yourself by what has happened with other people. Good luck.depending on the severity it may retract slightly but surgery is sometimes required, the uterus grows approximately 10 to 20 times it's normal size during pregnancy, big stretch takes some time to shrink again!Since you say "severe" uterine prolapse, I would suggest that you get a second opinion for your safety and health.My mom did after having three children (two C-Sections). She was literally falling out and got Menopause 15 years early. Things never went back into place, she had to hat to have surgery (hysterectomy).My mother did and ended up needing surgery.You need proper medical advice.

Women's answers preferred. WTMI! Q? about vaginal prolapse?
Best answer:
Most likely your bladder. MIne came out just a bit...from coughing so hard for yrs....I had surgery...they just tie it back up to it's original position. Not a big deal...normal recovery time, my Dr said I would notice a tightening in the vagina after....I didn't, but everything is fine.
