A vaginal prolapse can be a difficult condition—both physically and emotionally. Many women feel uncomfortable talking about it, yet it’s more common than most people realize. Prolapse happens when the muscles and tissues that support the vagina weaken, causing the vaginal walls or organs (such as the bladder, uterus, or rectum) to bulge into the vaginal canal.
If you are experiencing this, you may notice heaviness, discomfort, or difficulty with daily activities, and it can affect your confidence and intimate life. The good news is, vaginal prolapse can be treated—and modern medical solutions make it possible to regain comfort, health, and quality of life.
At Cayra Clinic, we specialize in both non-surgical and surgical treatments for vaginal prolapse, offering personalized care to help women feel like themselves again.
What Causes Vaginal Prolapse?
There are several reasons why vaginal prolapse occurs, often linked to pressure on the pelvic floor:
Childbirth trauma (especially multiple or difficult deliveries)
Aging and menopause (decline in estrogen weakens tissues)
Chronic coughing or constipation
Heavy lifting over long periods
Obesity and excess abdominal pressure
Genetic factors (weaker connective tissue)
Understanding the cause helps in choosing the best treatment.
Symptoms of Vaginal Prolapse
Common symptoms include:
A feeling of pressure or heaviness in the vagina
Bulge or lump you can feel or see at the vaginal opening
Difficulty emptying the bladder or bowel
Pain during intimacy
Lower back or pelvic discomfort
These symptoms may range from mild to severe, but you don’t have to live with them. Effective treatments are available.
How to Fix a Vaginal Prolapse: Treatment Options
Treatment depends on the severity of prolapse, your age, lifestyle, and personal preferences. At Cayra Clinic, we provide tailored solutions:
1. Lifestyle Changes and Preventive Care
For mild prolapse, simple steps may help manage symptoms and prevent worsening:
Avoid heavy lifting
Treat constipation to reduce straining
Maintain a healthy weight
Stop smoking to reduce chronic coughing
2. Pelvic Floor Exercises (Kegels)
Strengthening the pelvic floor muscles through regular exercises can reduce symptoms and support the vagina better. Our specialists often recommend guided physiotherapy for the best results.
3. Vaginal Pessary
A pessary is a small, removable device inserted into the vagina to support pelvic organs.
Non-surgical option
Useful for women who cannot undergo surgery
Provides relief from discomfort and pressure
4. Non-Surgical Treatments
Modern medicine offers non-invasive solutions such as:
Laser Vaginal Tightening – stimulates collagen, strengthens tissues
Radiofrequency Therapy – improves elasticity and support of vaginal walls
These are safe, quick procedures with minimal downtime.
5. Vaginal Prolapse Surgery
For moderate to severe prolapse, surgical repair is the most effective option. At Cayra Clinic, our experienced surgeons offer:
Anterior Vaginal Repair (Cystocele Repair): Fixes prolapse of the bladder into the vagina.
Posterior Vaginal Repair (Rectocele Repair): Corrects prolapse of the rectum.
Uterine or Vaginal Vault Suspension: Supports the uterus or vaginal vault if they drop down.
Minimally Invasive Laparoscopic or Robotic Surgery: Less pain, faster recovery, minimal scarring.
Our goal is not only to restore anatomy but also to improve comfort, function, and quality of life.
Recovery After Vaginal Prolapse Treatment
Recovery depends on whether treatment was non-surgical or surgical:
Non-surgical treatments: Immediate return to daily activities, minimal downtime.
Surgery: Most women return home within 1–2 days. Recovery takes 4–6 weeks.
Avoid heavy lifting and sexual activity until cleared by your doctor.
Pelvic floor exercises after recovery can help maintain long-term results.
NOTE: In some cases, reconstructive procedures such as Vaginoplasty Surgery may also help restore pelvic floor function and vaginal support.
At Cayra Clinic, we provide personalized aftercare plans, ensuring a smooth and comfortable healing journey.
