Question

I had a cesarean section for my first child and have not fully recovered. I am now five months pregnant with my second child. The fetus is normal and in a low position. Due to the growth of the fetus and pressure from the uterine lining, there is a mild prolapse of the anterior uterine wall. The doctor said that as the fetus grows, the prolapse may become more severe. Will it gradually recover postpartum?

Answer

Based on your description, it is considered to be a prolapse of the anterior vaginal wall. Whether a full recovery can be achieved postpartum varies from person to person, and postpartum pelvic floor recovery can be performed if necessary. As the uterus grows, the prolapse may worsen, but it may also lighten up after the fourth month of pregnancy. This is the recommendation for the question ‘The first cesarean section did not fully recover.’ I hope this helps you, and wish you good health!
