A member asked:
What is the procedure for surgical fixation of a prolapsed uterus?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: The risk/benefit analysis will take into consideration the degree of prolapse and the future need/use of the uterus. Removal with hysterectomy is one of several options available. Okay to take friend/family with you to gyn surgery consult to help ask questions and understand your options. Be well.
