The treatment of uterine prolapse depends on its severity, symptoms, and the patient’s overall health and lifestyle preferences. Here are the primary treatment options:

• Lifestyle Modifications: Weight management, avoiding heavy lifting, and treating chronic cough to reduce pressure on pelvic organs.
• Pelvic Floor Exercises: Strengthening the pelvic floor muscles through exercises like Kegels can help support the uterus and alleviate symptoms.
• Vaginal Pessaries: A device inserted into the vagina that supports the uterus and helps alleviate symptoms.
• Estrogen Therapy: For postmenopausal women, estrogen can help strengthen pelvic muscles and tissues.
• Surgical Options:
  • Uterine Suspension: Using surgical techniques to lift and secure the uterus in its normal position.
  • Hysterectomy: Removal of the uterus; considered for severe cases or if other treatments fail.
  • Minimally Invasive Procedures: Such as laparoscopic or robotic surgery, offering quicker recovery times and reduced risk of complications.

The choice of treatment often depends on the patient’s desire for future pregnancies, the degree of prolapse, and the presence of associated symptoms.
