What is pelvic organ prolapse, and what's the best treatment for it?
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) occurs when one or more pelvic organs such as the bladder, uterus, rectum, or vagina, descend from their normal position into or outside the vaginal canal. This is caused by the weakening of the pelvic floor muscles and connective tissue. It can cause discomfort, affect daily activities and impact quality of life. While common among women, especially after childbirth or menopause, POP varies in severity and treatment options are tailored to each individual's needs.
