Is uterine prolapse a common gynecological disease?
Uterine prolapse makes it easier to contract gynecological diseases. If the prolapsed uterus is close to the vaginal opening, various bacteria from the vulva can easily cause retrograde infections. In cases of third-degree prolapse, where the uterus protrudes outside the vaginal opening, various bacteria can directly invade the cervix and uterine body, leading to irregular bleeding and exacerbated vaginal inflammation. In severe cases, it significantly impacts daily life. Therefore, mild uterine prolapse generally does not pose a significant problem, but moderate and severe uterine prolapse can easily lead to vaginal and cervical inflammation. Bleeding caused by friction on the cervical surface may occur, and it is necessary to actively provide symptomatic treatment at this time. If the patient is relatively young and wishes to preserve the uterus, a uterine ligament suspension surgery can be performed to alleviate the condition of the prolapsed uterus.
