MedHelp Member's Question

I have stage 3 uterine prolapse w/rectocyle

I am 54yrs old , have a deformed cervix protruding from vagina. This causes much discomfort.
What is the least invasive procedure ?
Can I have the uterus secured up higher ?
So far 4 doctors want to do a total hysterectomy. Other than general prolapse & a small rectocyle,
there are not other health issues.

Thank You

If you have seen 4 docs and they all gave the same rx go with that.

Pessary or hysterectomy are the options I think.
I have prolapsed uterus and I have pelvic and back pain....I don't like pessary at all....I am having uterus removed asap
