In the case of uterine prolapse, what is the best non surgical management option ? Is it mandatory to perform a hysterectomy ? Thanks!

Mar 15, 2016

2nd opinion

Dr. Nehme Raad Urology

All depends on the type and degree of prolapse.

In general, there are 2 ways of surgeries for prolapse: trans-vaginal and trans-abdominal (sacro-colpo suspension).

An hysterectomy is not always needed.

The trans-abdominal approach is known to cause less recurrence of the prolapse, and the uterus is usually spared during this approach.
