Will a hysterectomy correct a prolapse bladder? My mother is in her 70's and constantly has to go to the restroom to urinate she also feels the bladder is fallen and complains about the discomfort she feels in it hanging.
I ran across medical literature that described useing a pessary for vaginal vault prolapse after hysterectomy. Keep looking and get a second opinion. Good luck ,I hope you avoid surgery.
I had a hysterectomy in 6/06. About 6 months ago my bladder prolapsed. It has become very painful and I can barely walk around anymore. Does anyone know of anything that to do to help this?
I noticed at Thanks Giving, the bulge. I went to a new doctor in January and was told I had a grade 2 bladder prolapse and that the uterus was also beginning to fall. We did some testing but because of the Monarc, the tests were inaccurate. It seems the bladder has fallen behind the Monarc. Then in March I was refered to a urologist and he let me know that I not only had the bladder but also the rectal prolapse. And I was " a mess". Which I was very aware of.
this is usually done w a gyno and urologist on board so that part sound right. the hyster and bladder prolapse are "clean surgerys" the rectocele is not , being in such close proimity and w other areas being freshly operated on some choose to have the rectal surgery seperatly after the first two are healed. I am gonna be honest, a hysterectomy is very painful (for most ) for fisr 1-3 weeks to add two surgerys on top of that Id hesitate.
i went to my doctor with a heavy feeling down below she examined me and said i have a prolapse im being referred to a gynocologist i had a hysterectomy 5 years ago so what sort of prolapse could it be
There were no uterine or bladder issues after my first child 10 years ago. After second child, I had a pretty bad bladder prolapse. Surgery (lift) to correct when she was 9 months old - only lasted a few months of relief. I suffered through for the next few years. 2 years after the surgery, third child was born. Two weeks after her birth, I went to the emergency room to get a catheter because my bladder was so full (2 1/2 times capacity).
A stronger pelvic floor better supports your uterus(whena we have one !, bladder, and bowels, and can ease postoperative symptoms such as hemorrhoids and urinary incontinence. Being faithful to your exercises. And they're easy to do (anywhere): Tense the muscles around your vagina and anus and hold (as you would if you were trying to stop the flow of urine), working up to ten seconds. Slowly release and repeat; shoot for three sets of 20 daily.
I have to have surgery for prolapse bladder and uterus. My GYN is going to do it. He says he will use the mesh sling to hold up the bladder. I ask about the law suits with bladder meshes. He said this kind is different. Worried about having surgery now. I need to have urinary catheter, was wondering how long it needs to stay in?
And removing the uterus will cause other problems with the bladder and bowel because the uterus is a placeholder and separator for the bladder and bowel. Once it is removed those organs drop and no longer have the uterus to separate them which can cause pelvic organ prolapse and fistulas. The vagina can also collapse / prolapse without its connection to the uterus. I'm 10 years post-hysterectomy and my vagina has been like a crumpled up shirt sleeve for some time now...very disgusting.
m assuming I now have adhesions. Have had hysterectomy in 2007 and further prolapse surgery in 2015. So a lot been done down there. Anyone else had back pain, bladder problems from adhesions. He doesn't seem to think fistula . Because no nasties coming from bladder ( sorry tmi but he means pooh) .
If this is not the case for you, then you do not have significant prolapse, and do not need surgery. Other prolapse symptoms include difficulty with bowel movements, problems emptying your bladder, low back pain/pressure, difficulty with intercourse (i.e, cannot get the penis into your vagina). If you do not have these symptoms, then you may not need any intervention. Prolapse, when present, can be repaired via abdominal or vaginal approaches.
I am scheduled to have a vaginal hysterectomy and bladder sling surgery in the near future. I have two questions that are of concern to me. First, is it absolutely necessary to have a catheter after the bladder surgery? Any other options? I have heard nightmares about it and don't want to go through the agony if there is an option. Second, my doctor is planning to use pigskin to hold back the bladder.
I am stuck with having to make an incredibly important decision. Please advise.
I am 42 years & have been diagnosed with having both bladder and bowel prolapse. I have had the urodynamics test which shows that my uretha struggles to release and is leaving behind around 200ml of urine each time. I also have 2x7mm lesions in the uterus and apparently a very thick uterine lining. Lastly, I also have cervical eroption.
My question, has anyone had the bladder repair surgery that uses stitches to anchor the bladder? He will perform the hysterectomy through the vagina and will perform the bladder tie up by making two holes in lower pelvic area and then stitch bladder up. What is the success rate for this type of surgery?
You are right to be concerned about an increased risk of pelvic organ prolapse as well as vaginal vault prolapse after hysterectomy. But the risks and side effects of hysterectomy involve a much longer list than prolapse. I had a hysterectomy 9 years ago and speak from experience as well as the knowledge I have gained since undergoing this damaging surgery.
The bladder and bowel descend without the uterus to separate them and hold them in place.
I have been in pain for over 2 years and have recently been diagnoised with IC and a uterine prolapse. I tried bladder instalations since November 09 and have recently had botox injected into my bladder since the instaltions were making me much sicker. The pain is about 50 % less than before the botox but I still have a very strong pain in the right side of my vagina as well as groan and back pain.
Scary though cause he says if I see an gym doc they would insert something to hold it up and it would b painful . Says I may never have to have hysterectomy and then again I may. Says to do kiegal exercises ???? Je is usually good about not putting me thru unnecessary stuff bit still has me worried from horror stories I have heard from women at work. Has anyone had this problem!
Hi there, wanted to let you and your wife know that her prolapse will continue to get worse, they do not heal themselves. I just had a vaginal hysterectomy this past Wed 8-5. I had a pelvic floor prolapse with my bladder and rectum fallen, in which they did A&P (anterior and posterior) repair. I thought my constant back pain and heaviness was fibromyalgia as I also have Hepatitis C. Not so, it was the prolapse causing all the pain in my lower back and tailbone.
In some bladder prolapse the urethra is kinked and and once the bladder is lifted the kink disappears and incontinence happens. If this test is done before surgery it can help the surgeon decide if you will need an additional procedure for incontinence. A dynamic MRI is a traditional pelvic MRI but a gel like substance is inserted in your rectum and you will be asked to do certain activities such as pushing to assess your pelvic floor. I had both tests and they weren't that bad.
