In this video we’re going to cover key things that you need to know about pelvic organ prolapses, which is when one or more of the organs in the pelvis - such as the uterus, bowel or bladder - slip down from their normal position and bulge into the vagina, including types, symptoms and treatment (such as pelvic floor exercises, pessaries and surgery).

We’ll cover the following information which is split into sections and time stamped:

00:21- What causes a pelvic organ prolapse?
00:47 - What are the different types of prolapse?
01:26 - What are the potential symptoms of a prolapse?
03:10 - What are some treatment options?
07:51 - Can I have sex with a prolapse?

There are 4 main types of prolapse:

A. The bladder bulging into the front wall of the vagina (anterior prolapse)
B. The womb bulging or hanging down into the vagina (uterine prolapse)
C. The top of the vagina sagging down – this happens to some women after they have had surgery to remove their womb
D. The bowel bulging forward into the back wall of the vagina (posterior wall prolapse)
