Prolapse and pelvic floor therapy, did it help?

Question

I have a vaginal prolapse. I had it after my first and now it's worse after my second birth. I can have surgery but was referred to pelvic floor therapy. I was going to try it before going straight to surgery. But I'm worried it's a waste of time, I'm currently on maternity leave so it feels like the best time to actually have surgery. But I also would rather not have surgery. If you did pelvic floor therapy did it actually help and help you avoid surgery on your prolapse?

Answer

I had bladder leakage, not a prolapse, so my experience may or may not apply to your scenario. In my case, it took about 6 weeks of pelvic floor PT before i started to see any improvement and 3-5 months before the issue was resolved. I think the PT is a good option, but since it takes a while to see results, you might get discouraged along the way, so PT may be more frustrating/difficult than the surgery. Good luck!

Answer

I did and it helped A LOT

Answer

After my oldest I was destroyed. Prolapse, borderline 4th degree tear, clitoral tear and nerve damage, internal nerve damage, urethral damage, could barely control my bladder, fecal leakage, ect. I couldn't sit, stand, or sleep without pain. Sex was excruciating. Pelvic floor therapy fixed everything. After pelvic floor therapy I felt like a new woman. No issues, better sex life, and best of all no pain. I can't recommend it enough.

Answer

I didn’t have a prolapse but I did go to physical floor therapy because I was urinating a lot through the night and like the other person below me said the process is slow is just kegal exercises that you can do at home so I actually stopped going before it was finished due to a busy schedule but do whatever you think is good I do think surgery is a much faster option
