How to Address Uterine Prolapse? Things You Must Understand!

Uterine prolapse is a manifestation of childbirth injuries and is a common condition among many middle-aged and elderly women. With the decline in birth rates, the incidence of uterine prolapse is also decreasing. Previously, there were many patients with this condition. Severe uterine prolapse significantly affects women’s quality of life. Why is that? Because once the uterus prolapses, it indicates that the entire pelvic floor is relaxed. Firstly, there may be urinary incontinence or urinary retention. Secondly, constipation may occur. Thirdly, vaginal laxity may lead to unsatisfactory sexual intercourse. Therefore, uterine prolapse is a serious condition that affects women’s physical and mental health.

Traditional treatment methods often involve uterine removal. While this prevents uterine prolapse, it doesn’t address the root cause of pelvic floor relaxation, making the patient’s condition even worse. Now, Antai Hospital has developed a technique called uterine sacral suspension. It involves placing an “Antai Ring” around the cervix and then lifting and fixing it to the sacrum, restoring the uterus to its normal anatomical position. At the same time, the tension of the pelvic floor increases, and the pelvic floor returns to its original position, lifting other visceral organs. This surgery not only solves the problem of uterine prolapse but also improves urinary incontinence, constipation, and sexual function. If there is no significant improvement, additional surgeries such as TVT for urinary incontinence, rectopexy, pelvic floor repair, or vaginal tightening can be considered to further enhance the quality of the treatment.

Therefore, uterine prolapse should not be treated by simply removing the uterus, nor should outdated suspension methods be chosen. There is only one method that can truly solve the problem, which is suspending it on the sacrum where it will be effective. Antai Hospital follows a treatment contract, and if there is still prolapse or significant pelvic floor relaxation symptoms and signs after surgery, a full refund is guaranteed.
