Brief Answer:
It seems weak pelvic muscles
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to Ask A Doctor service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
In my opinion, this is simply due to weak pelvic muscles and its not something serious. Myofascial disorder of pelvic muscles. Muscles tend to weaken with age and some other symptoms like urinary incontinence may also be there.
I would suggest the following:
- Ultrasound whole abdomen
- Pap smear
- Urine routine exam
- Gynecological examination will help confirm diagnosis and rule out any cystocele etc.
- Pelvic floor exercises (possibly as part of physical therapy) e.g Kegel's exercise can be helpful
Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
