Pelvic Organ Prolapse

Pelvic organ prolapse is a very common condition, especially in women over their 40. Pelvic organ prolapse occurs when the pelvic floor muscles become weak or damaged and can no longer support the pelvic organs.

It is estimated that 11% of women in the world will have some treatment for pelvic organ prolapse.

Pelvic organ prolapse may affect the daily life of women who suffer from this condition, limiting their physical or sexual functioning. Although prolapse is not considered a life-threatening condition, it may cause discomfort and anxiety.

Although many women who have pelvic organ prolapse do not have any symptoms because their cases are mild, others may experience some discomfort, such as sensation of pressure or foreign body in the pelvis, pain during sexual intercourse or even urinary problems such as involuntary urine leakage (incontinence) or an urgent or frequent need to urinate, especially at night.

If you experience any of these prolapse symptoms, especially if you can see or feel something near or at the vaginal opening, make an appointment with your gynecologist. Many women with prolapse avoid visiting their gynecologist because they feel embarrassed or because they are afraid of what their physician may diagnose, but prolapse is a very common condition, and there is no reason to be ashamed.

For some women, a pelvic organ prolapse becomes a painful and inconvenient problem. If you are one of these women, there are different options for prolapse treatment that will allow you to recover your lifestyle.

One of these options is Nazca POP Repair System, which is implanted using an innovative minimally invasive surgical technique, definitively solving the pelvic organ prolapse.
Through this simple procedure, a surgeon places a synthetic mesh through the vagina in order to hold and reposition the prolapsed organ in the right place.
