Laparoscopy for uterine prolapse
Sagging out of the uterus from its original position is called uterine prolapse. It’s a very common uterine disorder that occurs as a woman ages. Muscles and ligaments around the uterus can weaken over time because of vaginal childbirth and this can lead to uterine prolapse. It is a condition in which the pelvic organs drop down and press against the vagina, causing a bulge or protrusion.
Causes of uterine prolapse
Loss of muscle tone as the result of ageing.
Injury during childbirth, especially if you have had many babies or large babies (more than 9 pounds).
Obesity.
Chronic coughing or straining.
Chronic constipation.
Symptoms of Uterine Prolapse:
A feeling of heaviness or pressure in the pelvis.
Pain in the pelvis, abdomen or lower back.
Pain during sex (intercourse).
Uterine tissue that falls through the opening of the vagina.
Frequent bladder infections.
Unusual or excessive discharge from the vagina.
Constipation.

Laparoscopy for Uterine Prolapse: A Modern and Effective Treatment
There are several treatment options available for uterine prolapse, but laparoscopy is the most effective and advanced method for treating the condition. Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive technique that involves making a small incision in the abdomen to insert a slender, tube-like instrument called a laparoscope, which allows the surgeon to view and operate on the pelvic organs. This modern technique is preferred because it offers shorter hospital stays, minimal blood loss, less scarring, and reduced pain compared to traditional surgery.
