5 Signs of Pelvic Organ Prolapse After a Hysterectomy

Описание: If you've had a hysterectomy and you're starting to feel pressure or discomfort, my recovery program can help you rebuild strength safely: https://drdawnandalon.com/hysterectom...

If you’ve had a hysterectomy, you might think you’re in the clear after healing—but without the uterus providing support, your risk of pelvic organ prolapse increases. Pressure, heaviness, or discomfort in the pelvic area are often the first signs. These symptoms can get worse with prolonged standing or activity, but there are ways to strengthen and support your body without fear.

As a pelvic floor physical therapist, I’ve worked with countless women experiencing bulging, leaking, bowel changes, or even discomfort during intimacy—all potential signs of a prolapse. In this video, I walk you through the five most common symptoms after a hysterectomy and what you can do to address them naturally through breathwork, strength-building exercises, and lifestyle shifts.
