PROLAPSE  & PESSARY CARE

Being diagnosed with pelvic organ prolapse (POP) can feel extremely overwhelming. You may feel like you can’t even get out of bed or complete daily tasks without feeling vaginal pressure, and there is little guidance on what can be done to help a prolapse. But the good news is, being diagnosed with a prolapse does not mean you are guaranteed to have long term prolapse symptoms or require surgery.

 

In many cases, relief from POP is completely achievable without surgery and may even be able to be improved. Our team specializes in prolapse and pessary management for women who are frustrated with the pressure and do not feel comfortable choosing surgery as the first line of care for rehabilitation.
