Prolapsed Bladder

[Heather Currie]

Being a gynaecologist I would say a gynaecologist would be preferred (!) and indeed in the UK this operation is usually carried out by gynaecologists rather urologists. I would also recommend vaginal estrogen which helps strengthen the tissues and aids healing after the operation, along with pelvic floor exercises. Sometimes pelvic floor procedures do need to be repeated which is why it is well worth maximising the use of simple measures such as pelvic floor exercises, vaginal estrogen and weight loss if indicated.
