Read common questions on the coronavirus and ACOG’s evidence-based answers.
Pelvic organ prolapse is a disorder in which one or more of the pelvic organs drop from their normal position. It is caused by injury to the muscles or tissues that support the pelvic organs. The pelvic organs include the vagina, uterus, bladder, urethra, and rectum. These organs are held in place by muscles of the pelvic floor.
The main cause of pelvic organ prolapse is pregnancy and childbirth, especially vaginal childbirth. Other causes can include aging and obesity. This problem also runs in families.
The following videos show the different types of prolapse that can occur. Prolapse happens in stages. Mild cases are those in which the organs have dropped only a short distance. Severe cases are those in which the organs have dropped a greater distance. Sometimes several organs can be affected at once. There also are videos showing treatment with pessaries.
The uterus drops down into the vagina. In severe uterine prolapse, the uterus may protrude from the vagina.
The bladder drops down and creates a bulge into the front wall of the vagina. In severe cases, the bulge can protrude outside the vagina. Another name for bladder prolapse is cystocele.
The rectum drops down and creates a bulge into the back wall of the vagina. In severe cases, the bulge can protrude outside the vagina. Another name for this condition is rectocele.
In some cases, several organs can drop. Here the bladder, uterus, and rectum are shown shifting down.
Pelvic organ prolapse also can occur after hysterectomy (an operation to remove the uterus). The following videos show the different types of prolapse that can occur without a uterus.
Bladder prolapse can occur in a person without a uterus. Another name for bladder prolapse is cystocele.
The top of the vagina drops down, creating a bulge. In severe cases, the top of the vagina may protrude outside of the vagina. It also may occur with small intestine prolapse (shown here), anterior vaginal wall prolapse, or posterior vaginal vault prolapse.
The rectum can drop downward, creating a bulge into the back wall of the vagina. It may occur with prolapse of the vaginal vault. Another name for this condition is rectocele.
Pessaries are a nonsurgical treatment option that can relieve prolapse symptoms. A pessary is a device that is inserted into the vagina to provide support for prolapsed organs. Three types of pessaries are shown in the following videos.
This pessary is used to treat uterine prolapse.
This pessary is used to treat bladder prolapse.
This pessary is used to treat urinary incontinence caused by bladder prolapse.

Howie Mandel has shocked the Internet after posting a TikTok video showing a prolapsed anus.
The America's Got Talent judge posted the clip to his verified TikTok account, which has more than 9.9 million followers, on Saturday evening.
"This happened" when a friend bent over, the Canadian comedian said in the clip. "Does somebody know, is this COVID related? And if it is, what do we do about it?"
The video was up for several hours before it was removed, and Mandel has not acknowledged it in the clips he has posted since.
"Howie I'm gonna need you to talk about it man," a person wrote in the top comment on Mandel's most recent TikTok video.
"This feels like a coverup, Howard," another wrote, while another person called for an "apology video with tears."
The video also led to Mandel trending on Twitter , as many shared their horrified reactions.
"Howie Mandel just traumatized an entire generation of kids with one TikTok," NBC News reporter Kalhan Rosenblatt wrote in a tweet.
Singer Samatha Scarlette wrote: "Is Howie Mandel in his sane right of mind? That TikTok was absolutely insane. I'm just like wow..."
Journalist Jules Suzdaltsev questioned why the video was not removed by TikTok.
"I don't get why I get videos taken down on TikTok for saying maybe the police are bad meanwhile Howie Mandel posted an entire prolapse," Suzdaltsev tweeted.
"Howie Mandel's TikTok is a metaphor for the entire world right now," joked Ronnie Talbott.

Another Twitter user shared an image from the movie Mean Girls showing people with their hands in the air, writing alongside it: "Raise your hand if you've ever been personally victimized by Howie Mandel posting a prolapsed anus on his tik tok."
Some warned people not to check why Mandel was trending on Twitter in case they stumbled across the uncensored video.
"I THOUGHT HOWIE MANDEL DIED OR SOMETHING THIS IS MUCH WORSE," one Twitter user wrote.
Another said they were "genuinely too scared to go on TikTok in fear of crossing paths with Howie Mandel's prolapse video."
Mandel has previously spoken about his own health, including his obsessive compulsive disorder.
He took to Twitter to update his followers after passing out during a visit to a Starbucks in Los Angeles in October last year. "I was dehydrated and had low blood sugar," he said.
Days before that, he shared video footage of himself in hospital while recovering from a colonoscopy.
"The patient in the next bed recognized my voice and tried to audition for AGT as he was waking up," he said.
Newsweek has contact Mandel's representatives for comment.
