Many women experience some degree of Pelvic Organ Prolapse(POP) in their lives, whether mild or severe.
In most cases, the prolapse is mild and doesn’t require surgery and can be treated with pelvic floor strengthening exercises. However, the prolapse can get worse if you are not careful and you may end up need more than just Kegels .
Here’s a list of 15 things that can make your prolapse worse:
Over time, your entire body becomes weaker and your muscles and bones degenerate. This is not unique to the pelvic floor, but it is a factor that can make your prolapse worse.
Studies have shown that 37% of women who suffer from pelvic floor related disorders are between the ages of 60 and 79. Nearly 50% of these women are over 80.
Smoking doesn’t only lead to lung cancer and gum disease. It can also initiate Pelvic Organ Prolapse or cause it to worsen significantly.
This happens largely because of “smoker’s cough” which puts way more pressure on the pelvic floor than a regular cough. Smoker’s cough is the body’s way of removing the chemicals and toxins in cigarettes from the body. When one smokes heavily, the tiny hair-like structure in the lungs that are responsible for removing these toxins become weaker. The body’s response is to cough more violently and increase phlegm production.
Smoking can also weaken body tissue when nicotine gets absorbed into the bloodstream since it has been found to cause cell damage. It also slows down healing process after surgery since it lowers blood oxygen levels, meaning enough oxygen won’t get to your tissues.
Being overweight doesn’t just put you at risk of heart disease and diabetes.
Having a lot of abdominal fat increases intra-abdominal pressure on the pelvic floor and can cause pelvic floor dysfunction.
Obesity has been directly linked to pelvic organ prolapse and can cause symptoms to worsen over time if the weight is not reduced.
While having an hourglass figure is desired in many cultures, history has proven this obsession to be fatal with the corset leading to lung infections, muscle atrophy, back pain, fractured ribs, crushed organs, and sometimes even death.
Corsets made a sort of a comeback with waist trainers but that doesn’t mean they are safe. Wearing a waist trainer causes upward pressure on the diaphragm and stomach, and downward pressure on the pelvic floor and abdomen.
Prolonged downward pressure on the pelvic floor causes strain and this is worsened when the waist trainer is used during exercise.
So do yourself a favor, leave waist training to the celebrities and put in the hard work yourself to trim down your waist, the safe way.
Remember that thing called Gravity? Well, it does play a role in your prolapse. Here’s how:
Gravity pulls everything towards the center of the earth and keeps us from floating off into space. When standing upright, gravity kind of pushes us down to the ground, gently of course. This means that everything inside your body is being pushed down as well, including your pelvic organs. This causes daily strain, and when you stand for extended periods the strain increases, worsening your prolapse.
In addition to standing for a long time, walking for a long time can cause the symptoms of prolapse to worsen.
When you walk, you engage muscles in the legs, glutes, abdomen, arms, and core. By default, the pelvic floor gets some of the action. When you walk long distances, you may feel immediate pain or soreness for some time after.
This is an indication that you are overworking the pelvic floor and that you should walk for a shorter duration and/or distance.
Chronic constipation can cause prolapse or can be a symptom of prolapse. It is described as the inability to pass stool frequently or as difficulty in passing stool.
As it relates to worsening prolapse, constipation causes you to strain your pelvic floor muscles to find relief. This can cause them to loosen or tighten.
This can be a result of insufficient fiber and water in the diet which causes stool to harden. Constipation can also be caused by stress, resisting the urge to defecate, pregnancy and colon cancer.
A chronic cough is a cough that lasts more than 2 months. This can be caused by a myriad of conditions such as asthma, acid reflux, chronic bronchitis, lung infections, lung cancer, and certain medications.
When this happens, there is a persistent pressure placed on the pelvic floor from all the organs above it. This will cause it to strain unless the cough is suppressed or unless the pelvic floor is braced for the impact (i.e by contracting and holding it)
High impact activities such as jumping, skipping, running and certain dances that involve having one or both of the feet off the ground at any given time can worsen prolapse.
This happens because these place repeated downward pressure on the pelvic floor, especially when done for an extended period, for instance when running track, in intense workout videos and routines, during high-energy dance routine practices.
While it is always a good idea to strengthen muscles and tone the body, certain weight lifting practices can have a negative impact on the pelvic floor.
This all has to do with placing excessive pressure on the pelvic floor. This happens during leg exercises such as leg presses, deep squats, burpees, and deep weighted lunges, and back exercises such as chin-ups, deadlifts, and kettlebell swings. Certain upper body exercises such as push-ups and lateral pull downs can also put pressure on the pelvic floor.
This can also happen during vaginal weight lifting when proper precautions aren’t taken or when weights are simply too heavy for the pelvic floor muscles.
You can probably understand how being pregnant can put a strain on your pelvic floor muscles. Women who have moderate to severe prolapse are not encouraged to get pregnant since it can make the situation worse.
Not giving yourself enough time for your pelvic floor to recover between pregnancies is a bad idea. Your doctor will tell you that. Your pelvic floor muscles are not given enough time to heal properly and over time they will stretch, weaken and cause or worsen prolapse.
If you suffered from mild prolapse, your uterus and/or other pelvic organs can drop further into the vagina during and/or after childbirth . This is a pretty common experience among women who have had prolonged labor or operative vaginal deliveries, delivered big, heavy babies or even had a c-section
A pelvic organ tumor can affect any pelvic organ. These include the bladder, uterus, ovaries, anus, and testicles in men. While many are non-cancerous, they can cause pain, nausea, bloating, swelling, incontinence and several other uncomfortable symptoms and side effects.
If left untreated for an extended period, pelvic organ tumors can worsen Pelvic Organ Prolapse by continuously bearing down on the pelvic organ or pelvic floor.
Core and abdominal workouts are done to reduce body fat around the abdomen and to improve balance and stability. But while you may be getting your body bikini ready and Instagram worthy, you can also be worsening your pelvic floor.
Well, how can this be if you’re toning these muscles? Well, that’s where you’re wrong.
Toning pelvic muscles does not require the same approach as getting a six-pack. In fact, the intensity of many core and abdominal workouts overworks the pelvic floor muscles and causes them to strain.
So while you may be flatter in the tummy, you open up yourself to a world of pain, discomfort and even embarrassment with these workouts.
While having gynecological cancer and prolapse at the same time is rare, it is not impossible, as seen in the case of this 80-year-old woman
Another way cancer can cause prolapse to occur or worsen is after a hysterectomy . In this procedure, the uterus is removed to stop the cancer from spreading. This is a win, however, removing the uterus requires cutting certain ligaments and tissues that hold it in place that can cause damage to the nerves and blood vessels that support the pelvic floor and keep it healthy.
Over time you may find that even though the cancer is gone, something still doesn’t feel right down there. This is because the pelvic floor has weakened.
If you have mild prolapse then there’s no need to worry about surgery. There are different nonsurgical treatments you can try such as electrical stimulation , tibial nerve stimulation, and biofeedback to get your pelvic floor strong again. Simple at-home Kegels can even do the trick.
But, if you neglect your condition and do nothing to help it, it will catch up to you. Pelvic Organ Prolapse isn’t like a cold or flu. It won’t fix itself and it certainly won’t just go away.
Doing nothing will cause your prolapse to worsen. Additionally, doing the same things that caused your prolapse will cause it to worsen.
While Pelvic Organ Prolapse is not the end of the world and can be treated, it can get worse if you aren’t careful.
Be sure to open a dialogue with your doctor about what you can do to help manage your prolapse and more importantly, what you shouldn’t do that can make it worse.

Supporting ligaments and other connective tissues hold the uterus in place. When these supportive tissues stretch and weaken, the uterus can move out of its original place down into the vagina. This is called a prolapsed uterus.
Uterine prolapse occurs when pelvic floor muscles and ligaments stretch and weaken until they no longer provide enough support for the uterus. As a result, the uterus slips down into or protrudes out of the vagina.
Uterine prolapse most often affects people after menopause who've had one or more vaginal deliveries.
Mild uterine prolapse usually doesn't require treatment. But uterine prolapse that causes discomfort or disrupts daily life might benefit from treatment.
Mild uterine prolapse is common after childbirth. It generally doesn't cause symptoms. Symptoms of moderate to severe uterine prolapse include:

Being a mom in the age of the internet can be overwhelmingly scary.
Google “prolapsed pelvic organ” and you’re surrounded by terrifying images and horror stories on mommy forums that leave you with more questions and less hope.
Navigating life as a mom is hard enough. You don’t need your Google search results to scare you to tears.
Yes. Having a prolapse can leave you feeling worried and less than confident. But it doesn’t have to be so scary. Your life isn’t over. Your running/lifting/enjoying all the things life doesn’t have to end.
There are some key strategies and tools you can use to feel strong and confident again.
And the first step to feeling more empowered is to know exactly what you’re dealing with. The second step is knowing how to manage your symptoms and enjoy your life without constantly worrying if something you do (or don’t do) will make it worse.
In the bottom of your pelvis are your pelvic floor muscles and tissues. They act like a hammock or a trampoline supporting your pelvic organs (like your bladder, uterus and rectum).
A prolapse happens when these muscles and tissues get damaged or become incredibly weak and can’t properly support one or more of your pelvic organs. Once that support is compromised the organs fall down farther in the pelvis than they’re supposed to sit.
There are a few different issues and events that can cause prolapse. Like a long, hard pushing phase during labour, use of instruments during labour (forceps or vacuum), the drop in estrogen during menopause that can weaken pelvic floor tissues, and chronic lung diseases (like asthma) that cause you to cough a ton, to name a few.
Whatever caused your prolapse, it’s important to know that this is not your fault. It isn’t. You have enough guilt in your life, you don’t need to add “I did (or didn’t) do something and now I have a prolapse” to the list.
The best thing you can do is get help as early as possible. You want the best chance of getting as much function back to the muscles and tissues as possible. But it’s never too late and there are plenty of options to help your pelvic organs out – regardless how long ago you had your baby.
There are a few different types of prolapses.
If you have one of these types, it simply means that your bladder, uterus, or rectum is drooping down instead of staying perched up where it’s meant to be.
It’s also possible to have more than one prolapsed organ. Both your bladder and uterus could be prolapsed, for example.
With every sentence I type (Grade 4, I’m looking at you) I feel compelled to write “It’s okay! Please don’t stress! There’s hope!”
I know this can feel overwhelming and the opposite of fun, but stick with me. No matter how mild or severe your symptoms are, there’s absolutely hope. There always is.
And the truth is that symptoms vary and no two cases are the same.
Some women have a grade 3 or 4 prolapse with very little to no symptoms.
Others have a grade 1 or 2 prolapse with significant symptoms.
This is why it’s important that you focus less on the classification and more on your unique symptoms.
And remember that regardless what’s going on for you, there are options and strategies that can help.
It’s estimated that around 50% of women have some degree of prolapse after giving birth. But only 10-20% of women report symptoms of prolapse.
This means that most women with prolapse don’t actually have symptoms. It’s not severe and as long as they take steps to support their core and pelvic floor recovery postpartum – which I recommend all women do – they likely will continue to be asymptomatic throughout their life.
The truth is that our pelvic organs don’t need to stay in the exact same place our entire lives. They’ll likely shift during pregnancies and postpartum, throughout our menstrual cycle, and during menopause.
The key is to simply be aware and be mindful about any symptoms you may have without obsessing over them (which can be easier said than done if you’re Googling all the things worrying that you have prolapse and wondering how to fix it).
And take the appropriate steps to ease your symptoms if they do come up.
If you do have symptoms, they may look something like this:
Remember – you can get all or just some of these symptoms.
You’re not destined to a life without fitness. We just need to make sure that you’ve got a handle on supportive strategies (like proper core engagement and breath) and the fitness things you’re doing
