Well, I am probably your age, and when I saw the title of your question, I got so intrigued!. Then, I read your question, and I was kind of confused like all the other girls or boys that couldn't understand what you are talking about!. I knew you are talking about some disease!. I went through the answers, and got more insight about that!.
It is kind of stupid that people post 'answers' when they don't know the real answers, or don't understand the question, and then seem to blame the questioner!. I know that it probably frustrates you!. I would be frustrated too!. I would think that it's better for them not to post answers at all!.
Anyhow, I would like to thank you for being so inquisitive, and let other people that don't know about this actually become familiar with them!. It gets people to be more self-conscientious!.
:) Thanks,

Introduction
Uterine prolapse means your uterus has descended from its position in the pelvis farther down into your vagina!. Normally, your uterus is held in place by the muscles and ligaments that make up your pelvic floor!. Uterine prolapse occurs when pelvic floor muscles and ligaments stretch and weaken, providing inadequate support for the uterus!. The uterus then descends into the vaginal canal!.
Uterine prolapse often affects postmenopausal women who've had one or more vaginal deliveries!. Damage sustained by supportive tissues during pregnancy and childbirth, plus the effects of gravity, loss of estrogen and repeated straining over the years, can weaken pelvic floor muscles and tissues and lead to uterine prolapse!.
If you have mild uterine prolapse, treatment usually isn't needed!. But if the condition makes you uncomfortable or disrupts your normal life, you might benefit from treatment!. Options include using a supportive device (pessary), which is inserted into your vagina, or having surgery to repair the prolapse!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Causes
The uterus is normally supported by pelvic connective tissue and the pubococcygeus muscle, and held in position by special ligaments!. Weakening of these tissues allows the uterus to descend into the vaginal canal!. Tissue trauma sustained during childbirth, especially with large babies or difficult labor and delivery, is typically the cause of muscle weakness!.
The loss of muscle tone and the relaxation of muscles, which are both associated with normal aging and a reduction in the female hormone estrogen, are also thought to play an important role in the development of uterine prolapse!. Descent can also be caused by a pelvic tumor, however, this is fairly rare!.
Uterine prolapse occurs most commonly in women who have had one or more vaginal births, and in Caucasian women!.
Other conditions associated with an increased risk of developing problems with the supportive tissues of the uterus include obesity and chronic coughing or straining!. Obesity places additional strain on the supportive muscles of the pelvis, as does excessive coughing caused by lung conditions such as chronic bronchitis and asthma!. Chronic constipation and the pushing associated with it causes weakness in these muscles!.
Symptoms
Sensation of heaviness or pulling in the pelvis
A feeling as if "sitting on a small ball"
Low backache
Protrusion from the vaginal opening (in moderate to severe cases)
Difficult or painful sexual intercourse
Exams and Tests Return to top
A pelvic examination (with the woman bearing down) reveals protrusion of the cervix into the lower part of the vagina (mild prolapse), past the vaginal introitus/opening (moderate prolapse), or protrusion of the entire uterus past the vaginal introitus/opening (severe prolapse)!.
These signs are often accompanied by protrusion of the bladder and front wall of the vagina (cystocele) or rectum and back wall of the vagina (rectocele) into the vaginal space!. The ovaries and bladder may also be positioned lower in the pelvis than usual!.
A mass may be noted on pelvic exam if a tumor is the cause of the prolapse (rare)!.
Treatment
Uterine prolapse can be treated with a vaginal pessary or surgery!.
A vaginal pessary is an object inserted into the vagina to hold the uterus in place!. It may be used as a temporary or permanent form of treatment!. Vaginal pessaries are fitted for each individual woman!.
Pessaries may cause an irritating and abnormal smelling discharge, and they require periodic cleaning, usually done by the physician!. In some women they rub on and irritate the vaginal mucosa, and in some cases may erode and cause ulcerations!. Some types of pessaries may interfere with normal sexual intercourse by limiting the depth of penetration!.
If the woman is obese, attaining and maintaining optimal weight is recommended!. Heavy lifting or straining should be avoided!.
There are some surgical procedures that can be done without removing the uterus, such as a sacral colpopexy!. This procedure involves the use of surgical mesh for supporting the uterus!.
Most surgery should be deferred until symptoms are significant enough to outweigh the risks!. The surgical approach depends on:
The woman's age and general health
Desire for future pregnancies
Preservation of vaginal function
Degree of prolapse
Associated conditions
When indicated, a vaginal hysterectomy is performed!. Any sagging of the vaginal walls, urethra, bladder, or rectum can be surgically corrected at the same time!.
Outlook (Prognosis)
With proper precautions (periodic check-ups and cleaning) vaginal pessaries can be effective for many women with uterine prolapse!. Surgery, if done, usually provides excellent results, however, some women may require treatment again in the future for recurrent prolapse of the vaginal walls!.
Possible Complications
Urinary tract infections and other urinary symptoms may occur due to the frequently associated cystocele!. Constipation and hemorrhoids may also occur as a result of the associated rectocele!. Ulceration and infection may occur in more severe cases of prolapse!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
