Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Zhao Xiaodong
Uterine prolapse, medically termed as such, has various treatment options, primarily including the following:
1. **Healthy lifestyle**: Maintaining an appropriate weight, balanced diet, regular exercise, and avoiding excessive straining can help improve symptoms of uterine prolapse and slow disease progression.
2. **Pelvic floor muscle exercises**: For patients with mild uterine prolapse, pelvic floor muscle exercises are an effective treatment. Strengthening the tension of pelvic floor tissues can achieve therapeutic effects.
3. **Medication**: Under a doctor's guidance, patients may use medications such as Buzhong Yiqi Pills or Shengui Lichung Pills, which help promote recovery of pelvic floor muscle tone and alleviate localized symptoms.
4. **Surgical treatment**: For moderate to severe uterine prolapse, or for patients who do not respond well to conservative treatments, surgical intervention may be necessary.
