What tests are done for uterine prolapse

Prolapsed uterus can be examined by gynecological internal examination and pelvic floor ultrasonography to clarify the degree of prolapsed uterus so as to formulate an appropriate treatment plan. 1. Internal gynecological examination: Internal gynecological examination is a routine gynecological examination that uses a vaginal speculum to understand the cervix and vagina. When the uterus is prolapsed, the gynecological examination will help the doctor to understand the degree of uterine prolapse and then make a clear diagnosis. 2. Pelvic floor ultrasonography: If the degree of uterine prolapse is not obvious and it is difficult to accurately determine through gynecological internal examination, the degree of prolapse can be evaluated through ultrasonography. The appearance of uterine prolapse is mainly related to vaginal delivery, aging, increased abdominal pressure, etc. Lumbosacral swelling and lower abdominal pain may occur, and in severe cases, the uterus may detach from the vagina, which requires timely treatment. Therefore, if women experience lumbosacral discomfort and lower abdominal pain, it is recommended that they go to the hospital for timely examination. They can determine whether there is uterine prolapse and its severity through gynecological internal examination as well as pelvic floor ultrasonography. If it is clear that the uterus is prolapsed, you can use uterine support under the guidance of the doctor, or even surgical treatment. Take care of rest, avoid over-exertion, and strengthen the pelvic floor muscle function training.
