Suggest Treatment For Pressure And Discomfort In The Vagina
My dr. Has told me that my uterus has dropped some for a couple years. The last week I ve had some discomfort and some pressure in my vaginal area. I have felt the area after my shower, and it feels like a smooth sack. If this is my uterus,and it has dropped all the way down is this something that needs to be remove right away? I have booked a trip with hotel, air, and a lot of planning. I have 5 weeks before we go, and would like to do it when I come back. What do you think?

Hello,
It is possible for the uterus to prolapse into the vagina so that you can feel it, so that may be what you are feeling. It is probably fine for you to wait for the repair until you get back from your trip. See your doctor as soon as possible for an exam and to get their opinion about travel.
