Genital prolapse, also known as pelvic organ prolapse, occurs when the muscles and tissues supporting the organs in the pelvis become weak or loose. Here are the common types:
1. Cystocele (Anterior Vaginal Wall Prolapse): The bladder bulges into the front wall of the vagina.
2. Urethrocele: The urethra (the tube that carries urine from the bladder) bulges into the vaginal wall.
3. Rectocele (Posterior Vaginal Wall Prolapse): The rectum bulges into the back wall of the vagina.
4. Enterocele: The small intestine bulges into the upper portion of the vagina.
5. Uterine Prolapse: The uterus descends into the vaginal canal.
6. Vaginal Vault Prolapse: The top of the vagina (vaginal vault) sags down into the vaginal canal, often occurring after a hysterectomy.
Each type of prolapse can cause different symptoms and may require different treatment approaches.
