YES. YES. YES. Okay, not literally, right? Not EVERYONE has a prolapse, but hear me out, because this is the most legit thing I have ever heard from an OBGYN...
I truly believe that pelvic organ prolapse is more common than we think and VASTLY under-diagnosed.
What is Pelvic Organ Prolapse? Prolapse occurs when the pelvic organs (i.e. your bladder, rectum or uterus) drop lower than their normal positions.
The Under-Diagnosis Problem: Often, a mild-moderate prolapse won't be detected unless a thorough internal evaluation is performed, and guess what? That doesn't typically happen!
Empowering Mindset: Assume You Have a Prolapse. Everyone has a prolapse until proven otherwise!!! If you follow this mindset and treat your body as if you have a prolapse, you will ultimately PREVENT yourself from creating one.
Take Control of Your Health: You have the power to protect your pelvic health. Incorporate pelvic floor exercises. Pay attention to your posture. Be mindful of your lifestyle choices. Seek professional guidance. Make self-care a priority.
Remember, knowledge is power, and taking control of your pelvic health can make a significant difference in your life.
