YES, your pelvic organs can HANG out of your vagina…

When I was pregnant with Lorenna my prenatal yoga instructor told me a close family member’s bladder fell into her vagina and she had to go for surgery. 

I remember thinking - what?! I didn’t know that was possible and why am I only learning about this at 8 months pregnant! How do I avoid, prevent, or fix this if it happens to me? So. Many. Questions.

Even though that was 13 years ago, studies have shown that there is still a major lack of knowledge and stigma surrounding this is issue, which results in shame and fear when symptoms arise. At times, when presented to GPs, women's symptoms are often dismissed and unaddressed until they become more severe.

June is #PelvicOrganProlapse (POP) Awareness Month, and while up to 40% of women experience this, many don’t know about it. 

Public awareness is needed so that women may make informed decisions about their treatment plans and have the knowledge to prevent a prolapse from getting worse or happening at all.

While incontinence may be a common symptom of POP, it shouldn’t be considered normal, or synonymous with the postpartum/aging body. 

There are many products out there marketed towards incontinence, whether it be liners or leak proof undergarments, these are temporary solutions to a much larger health issue which can potentially be reversed with awareness.
