What are the symptoms of uterine prolapse?
Mild uterine prolapse may have no clinical symptoms, while severe cases can feel a sense of falling and lower back pain, along with a mass protruding from the vagina. This mass may increase and the sensation of falling becomes more pronounced with long periods of standing, vigorous activity, or increased abdominal pressure. If there is a bulge in the anterior vaginal wall or the bladder, with the urethra and the posterior angle of the bladder becoming sharp, it can lead to difficulty urinating or urinary retention. If a urinary tract infection occurs subsequently, symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and painful urination may arise. If the bulge in the bladder coincides with a urethral bulge and a complete protrusion of the anterior vaginal wall, where the posterior angle of the urethra and bladder disappears, urinary leakage can occur during coughing, straining, or other activities that increase abdominal pressure, leading to what is called stress urinary incontinence.
