A pelvic floor disorder can be painful, inconvenient, and embarrassing. A pelvic floor disorder happens when your connective tissue, ligaments, and muscles are weakened enough that you experience a “dropping” of your vagina, uterus, rectum, small intestine, bladder, or urethra. Most of the time pelvic prolapse is accompanied by a feeling of heaviness or pressure in your vagina. You may feel as if your uterus, bladder, or rectum is falling out. Pelvic prolapse can also lead to incontinence, pain during intercourse, and more.
