Prolapse: Dome types of bladder prolapse get the urethra kinked. That's why you insert your fingers the reduce the defect and straighten the urethra for appropriate flow.

Vaginal Prolapse: Manual reduction of vaginal prolapse can often improve both urination and defication. Placing your fingers into the vagina is partially restoring proper anatomy and displacing prolapsed pelvic organs which are obstructing your urethra, allowing improved urination. A urologist who does pelvic floor reconstruction or a urogynecologist can help you with this issue.
