Pelvic Organ Prolapse

Dr. Rashmi Gupta provides specialised care for pelvic organ prolapse, a condition where one or more pelvic organs descend from their normal position due to weakened support tissues. She offers thorough evaluation and advanced reconstructive treatment options to help women regain comfort, function, and confidence. With her extensive experience in pelvic reconstructive surgery, Dr. Gupta ensures that treatment is safe, effective, and tailored to each woman’s unique needs.

What It Is

Pelvic organ prolapse occurs when the bladder, uterus, vagina, or rectum shifts downward and bulges into the vaginal canal. This happens because the pelvic floor muscles, ligaments, and supportive tissues become stretched or weakened, unable to hold the organs in place.

Why It Happens

Common causes include childbirth trauma, multiple vaginal deliveries, ageing, menopause, chronic constipation, obesity, heavy lifting, or previous pelvic surgeries. Genetic factors can also contribute. When the pelvic support system weakens, organs gradually descend, leading to discomfort, pressure, urinary issues, or difficulty in daily activities.

Procedure / Treatment

Dr. Gupta begins with a detailed pelvic examination, symptom assessment, and imaging if required. Mild cases may be managed with pelvic floor therapy, lifestyle modifications, or pessary devices. For more advanced prolapse, she offers surgical correction using minimally invasive, laparoscopic, or reconstructive techniques to restore organ position and strengthen pelvic support. Each treatment plan is designed to provide long-term relief, improved structural support, and enhanced quality of life.
