Experience and expertise for treating pelvic prolapse.

A women's body undergoes tremendous stress during her lifetime. Pregnancy, childbirth, strenuous exercise and gynecologic surgeries can weaken the natural support structure of the pelvis, causing the pelvic organs to shift from their natural position and even protrude into or outside of the vaginal canal. This condition is referred to as pelvic prolapse. When a woman suffers from pelvic prolapse, her symptoms can vary and be easily misdiagnosed. Common complaints include:

• Urinay urgency & frequency • Pelvic pain

• Pain during intercourse • Lower back pain

• Vaginal pressure • Decreased urinary flow • Constipation

Treatment options.

• Laparoscopic prolapse surgery. To correct and repair pelvic prolapse with minimal scarring and pain.
• Vaginal vault susperision: To treat vaginal relaxation defects.
• Physical therapy. To strengthen pelvic muscles and improve or resolve incontinence.
