Incomplete uterovaginal prolapse

Definition

A condition caused by weakness, damage, or stretching of the ligaments between the uterus and the vaginal wall, typically subsequent to childbirth. This condition is characterised by stage 1 descensus of the uterus into the vagina, leading to a bulge and distal prolapse greater than 1 centimetre above the hymen or stage 2 descensus with distal prolapse of 1 centimetre or less proximal or distal to the hymen. This condition may also present with urinary incontinence, sensation of heaviness in the pelvis, or difficulty urinating.
