• What is Uterine Prolapse?
• Uterine prolapse happens when pelvic floor
  muscles and ligaments stretch and weaken and no
  longer offer enough support for the uterus. As a
  consequence, the uterus slips down into or
  protrudes out of the vagina.
• Uterine prolapse could occur in women of any age.
  But it usually affects postmenopausal women who
  have had one or more vaginal deliveries.
• Mild uterine prolapse generally does not require
  treatment. But if uterine prolapse makes you
  uncomfortable or disturbs your normal life, you
  may benefit from treatment.

  (incontinence) or urine retention.

•    Feeling like you are sitting on a small ball
  or as if something is falling out of your vagina.

  morning and get worse as the day goes on.
