Is it prolapse… or something else?

Feeling heaviness or pressure “down there”?  

You might worry it’s a prolapse, and sometimes it is.

But there are also other causes:

  • Tension in the pelvic floor

  • Scar tissue pulling downward

  • Nerve irritation or swelling

  • Bowel patterns causing pressure

The sensation of bulging doesn’t always match the severity of tissue descent. 

A qualified pelvic health physio can help you figure out what’s really going on (without fear-based assumptions).
