Anyone had colpocleisis surgery? I want to learn more

I had colpocleisis surgery in August and the results are miraculous. Prior to surgery, each day of two years was a burden of a bladder hanging down, painful bladder and bowel spasms, diarrhea and general discomfort. There is not much pain after surgery, I did stay in the hospital overnight and rested the next day, took pain pills. I did use a vaginal cream for two years prior to surgery but it did not prevent further prolapse. I would highly recommend this surgery.

Sharnie, Thank you for your response. It is helpful. Do you mind telling me your age? Have you had other POP surgeries? I used cream too and have for years. It has not helped with the prolapsing problem. Are you able to be active now?

Am contemplating this surgery. Have an appt at Mayo Phx on April 6th, 2023.

My question: Did you have to have a hysterectomy in conjunction with having the Colpocleisis surgery?

Good for you
I’m so scared of pre and post
Need a total hysterectomy and trying to get a closure
I’m scared of the Urodynamic procedures
Please help
