One in nine women experience some form of pelvic organ prolapse in their lifetime. According to a study conducted at Ohio State University, about 200,000 surgical procedures are performed in the United States each year to repair prolapse of one or more organs in the pelvis. These organs, the uterus is the most prone to prolapse. This article will discuss the causes and treatment of uterine prolapse, as well as several other conditions of the uterus are the most common.Prolapse of the uterus can be through various levels of severity. At first, prolapse cervix pushed further and further into the vagina than normal. This is sometimes called a "complete prolapse." Finally, the cervix will drop enough that it sticks to the vaginal opening or lasts slightly protruding from the vagina. If conditions deteriorate further, the entire uterus may arise from the vagina. This is called procidentia, or "complete prolapse."The inverted uterus is a naturally occurring variance on how the uterus is positioned in the lower abdomen of a woman. Basically, instead of the uterus lying above the bladder, it is positioned to either side of it. Inverted uterus heads back toward the spine instead of the navel. The cervix (or opening of the uterus) remains intact in the same place ie either at the top or end of the vaginal canal, but the body (or fundus) of the uterus is located in an unusual position. Medically known as uterine retroversion, uterus, and mal-position of the uterus, women with this disorder usually do not have a problem regarding the conception and childbirth. Therefore, the myth that women have inverted uterus can not have children is totally false, as once they were pregnant, the uterus changes gradually return to normal position until the baby is born and then it will be reversed again.Medically, it is not proven yet that the inverted uterus can cause severe damage to people or it can cause life-threatening diseases or complications in the functioning of the body. However, unfortunately, if you or someone close to you have been diagnosed with an inverted uterus, do not panic and consult with your doctor as he / she can give correct information about the size and configuration of the uterus and whether it will affect your health in any way .
