Pelvic organ prolapse

Posted by dappy @dappy, Sep 30, 2023

I won’t get to see a urogynecologist until Dec. for pelvic organ prolapse. I was wondering if any suggestions on how to relieve this very uncomfortable feeling until my appointment (other than a pessary). (Also, have tried tampons which won’t stay in).

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Women's Health Support Group.

it should be applied to the vaginal tissues
some come with an applicator to make it easier but most are generally a "fingertip" worth (or 1 gram) into the vagina and a smalll portion on the vulva, the external area, to help with the thinning of the tissues due to loss of estrogen and can impact the urethra leading to symptoms mirroring UTIs and unnecessary doses of antibiotics.
