Prolapse Post-Surgery Management
After Prolapse Surgery: What To Do Next
What to expect with prolapse surgery recovery:
Moving at a safe and strategic progression of exercise is important for proper tissue healing and overall recovery. It is common to initially feel pelvic floor heaviness, incontinence, frequency, and urgency. However, that will clear up as your recovery progresses.
We will guide you through hesitancy of exercising post surgery and we will safely teach you gentle and proper ways to recruit muscles. After a surgical procedure it is imperative to rebuild the brain body connection and our easy to follow program will help you do that.
Questions and concerns are common during this healing phase, if you have issues or need more individualized care, be sure to have a visit with a pelvic floor physical therapist.

Understanding Pelvic Floor Disorders
Pelvic floor disorders occur when the muscles, ligaments, and nerves supporting the bladder, uterus, vagina, and rectum become weakened or damaged. This can result from childbirth, chronic conditions, repeated heavy lifting, or surgery, leading to discomfort and loss of function.
At WomanWoRX, we combine expertise from the Urogynecology Center of Minnesota with specialized Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy to provide effective, non-surgical treatment. If pelvic floor issues are affecting your daily life, we’re here to help you regain strength, comfort, and confidence.
