Brief Answer:
Yes. This is a known problem at your age and can be easily corrected

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

I read your query and I understand your concerns about prolapse.

Following is my reply:

1) What you are experiencing is called vaginal prolapse in medical terms.

2) As there is increase in age, there is weakness in vaginal walls which leads to protrusion of uterus through vagina.

3) This is associated with protrusion of urinary bladder through anterior wall of vagina and is called cyctocele.

4) there is associated protrusion of intestines and rectum through the posterior vaginal walls and is called enterocele / rectocele.

5) These might have occurred slowly over long term and you are noticing them now.

6) These can be corrected easily by a simple surgery. Please see your gynecologist for examination and preparations for surgery.

7) There is no emergency. Initially this will be fixed with a pessary till surgery preparation are done.

I hope I answered your query. I will be available for any follow up query you have.

Regards,
Dr. Soumya
