How to Prevent Prolapse: Your Best Solution for Prolapse
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a common condition where one or more pelvic organs, such as the bladder, uterus, or rectum, drop from their normal position, often causing discomfort or other symptoms. POP occurs when the muscles and tissues supporting the pelvic organs weaken, causing these organs to press against or descend into the vaginal canal. While prolapse is more common than many realize, understanding the risk factors can be key to prevention and early intervention. Here, we’ll explore some of the primary risk factors, including aging, childbirth, and lifestyle factors like weight and chronic health conditions, and how each affects the pelvic area.
