What is the best & safest procedure for uterine prolapse?

I had a rectocele and cystocele repair a couple of years ago and it went well however right now I’m facing the same issues as you- the severe pelvic and perineal descent brought it all back. I’ve yet to find a surgeon to help.

Where are you having surgery/who is your surgeon?

I am having surgery for my second time in October. I had surgery for rectocele and bladder repair (Can't remember the term used) over 20 years ago. (My ten pound baby boy did a job on my vagina - delivered naturally and tore all over). The surgery held for about 15 years. Because of colon cancer, constipation, etc., I have strained enough over the years to cause it to come back. The doctors here won't do it (until it's worse), so I am going across state lines, back to my gyno that did it last time. If he can relieve me from these symptoms, I will be VERY grateful. Advice for afterwards? I am going to live on smoothies for a few weeks, so I can heal . Then, I will be very careful not to bear down or stress too hard. It tears it right back to what I don't want. I take Linzess to help me go. I monitor what I eat as to not block myself and keep things moving. Hope this helps.

Has anyone experienced night pain from uterine prolapse? After several years of this I think it is prolapsed uterus restricting urine flow causing kidney pain. This causes me to wake up in pain and pass small amounts of urine several times a night. I have also developed renal cysts and suspect they were caused by this issue. I have not been able to get answers even after kidney ultrasound, gyn exams, ovary sonograms, and abdominal MRI. I do have a bifrocated uterus which makes things a little more murky. Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Can you consult a uro-gynecologist? These are physicians with specific training on all the gyn issues and impacts on uro-genital systems. Pelvic PT might be helpful but surgery may also be indicated. There's a test for urine flow dynamics which name escapes me.

Thank you for your reply. Yes, I am trying to get a referral to a urogynocologist at Mayo Jacksonville. I think that is my best option.
