Prolapse Surgery Won't Last - Why You Need Kegel8
For ladies suffering with some kind of pelvic organ prolapse, this can be devastating and can really damage self-esteem, as well as being uncomfortable or even painful. Prolapse surgery is extremely common, with nearly 250,000 women every year in the US undergoing the procedure. It is estimated 1 in 10 women in the UK will receive prolapse surgery.
Can Kegel8 Help Before And After Prolapse Surgery?
At Kegel8, this is something that we’ve recognised for a long time – prolapse surgery will give you quick relief from the symptoms of prolapse, but unless you strengthen your pelvic floor, chances are the prolapse will return. We compare prolapse surgery to a sticking plaster – it gets rid of the symptoms but doesn’t cure the underlying cause of prolapse which is a weak pelvic floor!
