El prolapso del órgano pélvico ocurre cuando los músculos y tejidos que soportan los órganos pélvicos (el útero, la vejiga o el recto) se debilitan o se aflojan. Esto provoca que uno o más de los órganos pélvicos caigan o presionen dentro o fuera de la vagina. Muchas mujeres se averguenzan de hablar con su médico sobre sus síntomas o piensan que los síntomas son normales. Pero el prolapso del órgano pélvico tiene tratamiento.
