Where did my vagina opening go?????

Question

I'm 5 weeks postpartum and I just looked down there for the first time and I have no vagina opening! It looks like a cataract. My husband thought it was swollen shut but there's something that completely grew over what used to be an opening. WTF is this? Is this normal? Am I gonna need surgery?

Answer

Turns out I have stage 3 uterine prolapse 😭 Just when I was crazy excited to be able to hit the gym hard this week 😭

Answer

Never heard of that either. Is it not just an anterior wall vaginal prolapse? When looking it looks like there is no opening because the vagina is prolapsed and closes the opening, but if you insert a finger you'll notice there is an opening but you have to push up the anterior wall of the vagina...

Answer

I've never heard of that... I'm guessing you have your 6 week check up soon. They will examine everything then to make sure it is normal and healing like it should be.
