Has anyone here been diagnosed with a cystocele?  Where your bladder droops down into your vagina?

I don't, but I know of a few things to help.  One is surgery, in which they tack up the bladder.  Another is a doughnut shaped object inserted into the vagina to keep the bladder from falling.  It depends on what it is caused by, and what your Dr. thinks, what he will recommend.

You have low bladder control, you should probably see a urologist, something serious could be causing it, otherwise there is medication you can take to help with that.

I have had the laproscopy procedure done for endometriosis. It is out patient surgery and they make an incision through your belly button or right under it. I had a couple days for recovery, then I was back to my normal activity. I have had an ovarian cyst as well, I never had surgery for it, it ruptured on its own. I know they can be fairly common.

after my surgery that happened to me also. i think maybe because i had a&p repair and when they do hysterectomies usually the uterus is prolapsed and they tack up the vagina,bladder and walls and rebuild some things as my doctor stated "your husband will like this". but since then as time went on  do get aroused laying on my back and other positions i have learned to adjust.

I always rip out the center. One day I asked a friend if they did too, they answered no and asked why I did.\nAfter that I tried to go pee with the center left on. Well... when I peed on the dang thing the center didn't break through and my pee just splashed back up on my ass end. lol.\n\nI'll never do that again! Although I can only speak for the ladies. It may be different for men.

I had the same thing happen to me several years ago.  I had ovarian cysts that had to be removed surgically.

Hey girl, look dont be so down on yourself! I know youre self consious, and its a horrible thing to happen. But you have to ask yourself why this is happening. It could be very much psychological or you could have weak bladder control. I know its embarrasing but the sooner you get it checked out by the doctor, the sooner it stops happening to you.\nIt happened to me once, but it was psychological i think. I was coming home from france. I had been spiked over there, and wasnt sure what happened. Later on, i found out that I was raped. It was my body's reaction to the trauma i suppose.\n\nYou should talk to someone about this, it does help. Otherwise you might get depressed about it and it would then lead to other anxiety disorders.\nWell done for putting the question out there. So brave of you.\nIf you get any snide answers,ignore them.\nHope you find the answers you need.\n(A tip for you is to excercise your pelvic floor muscles -  Next time you go to the toilet, squeeze your muscles and see how it stops your flow,youll see what im talking about. Then squeeze these muscles like 20 times a day or something.)\nGood luck!

You need to read more about this condition.  It really does require a doctor's care.  Going to a gynecologist really is no big deal.  You are not there to get a date, but you are there for medical care.  Doctors could really care less about pimples or dark spots on skin.  They are not going to be rating you on a scale of 1 to 10, nor are they going to post what they have seen on a bulletin board for all to see.  Your visit is confidential and doctors take this very seriously.  Please go get checked by a physician.  Even a Planned Parenthood in your area could help you get started.\n\nThese are the things that you can experience without medical treatment:  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.\nhttp://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/001508.htm\n\nIn the meantime, read about your condition here:\n\nhttp://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/001508.htm\n\nhttp://www.intelihealth.com/IH/ihtIH/WSIHW000/9339/10941.html

More likely it is weak pelvic floor muscles.\n\nYou can do exercises to strengthen them. Just sqeeze/contract all the muscles around your bottom and crotch area as though you are trying to hold in a wee. Hold this for a couple of seconds then repeat the exercise. \n\nDo this as many times a day as you can. Sitting, standing when ever you think of it. The more times you do it the better. \n\nIt would be a good idea for you to discuss this with a doctor as the problem might be caused by something else and you could need other treatment.

There is got to be a problem here, read this.\n\nWhat is cystitis?\n\nAn irritation of the lining of the bladder wall.\n\nSymptoms of cystitis include: \n\nUrinary frequency \nUrinary urgency \nBurning with urination \nDysuria (painful urination)  \nUrinary retention: (an inability to empty the bladder completely when voiding). \nHematuria: blood in the urine. \nVague abdominal (or suprapubic) pain.\nThings you can do to reduce cystitis symptoms:\n\nVoid frequently, as soon as you feel the urge to urinate and also before going to bed at night. \nIncrease fluid intake, drink at least 2 quarts of fluid a day to flush your bladder.\nTreatments or medications your doctor may prescribe for these bladder problems:\n\nAnalgesics pain medication. \nAntibiotics if concern of underlying infection or as preventive measure. \nIntravenous fluids to flush metabolites from the bladder. \nUse of Mesna (a compound that protects the bladder lining by binding to the metabolite acrolein in the bladder to form an inactive product that is readily excreted by the bladder.  The use of this does not compromise the antitumor activity of the chemotherapy).\nWhen to notify your doctor or health care provider of bladder problems:\n\nFever of 100.5º F (38º C) or higher, and or chills (possible signs of infection). \nSymptoms of bladder irritation: blood in the urine, frequency, difficulty or burning when urinating, pain.

If you have a worn disk in your back, then you should NOT have manipulations done - you're much more likely to suffer irreversible damage.  If the chiropractor is doing low grade gentle adjustments, then that should be fine.\n\nAny bladder or bowel symptoms caused by something pressing on the nerves supplying them in the back is treated as a medical emergency - it usually means there is a central protrusion or problem in the spinal cord, and is extremely serious.\n\nYour MRI would have ruled that out - assuming it was your back that was scanned.\n\nIf the nerve supply to the bladder is intact, it's highly unlikely your bladder symptoms are related to your back problems.\n\nYou don't say whether you have children or what your general history is.  I suggest you get referred for urodynamics - a series of test to see how the bladder copes as it fills and empties.  This should throw some light on the subject.  These tests usually need to be ordered by a gynaecologist - so request  a referral to one.\n\nGood luck - be careful about what you allow to be done to your back - it has to last you a long time, and it's already damaged.

I have had this done.When you go in they will show you a movie about Dysphlasia { not sure if I spelled it rite but you know what i mean}and how they remove it. What will happen if they do not get it all or it comes back.I know that you are scared.I was terrified.But remeber they caught it early which means chances are they will get it all the first time. As for the Leep it's self honestly it's not fun.But they do freeze the effected area before they do it.What I found more uncomfortable was having the freezing needles put in.I had some  cramping after that lasted about 3 days.I just took Motrin for it. I had to go back every 6 month for 2 years to have Biopsies taken just to be sure it did not come back. I now make sure that I never miss my pap.Good Luck if you need to talk feel free to e-mail me. Hope this helps some.

I have found that addressing the issue of incontinence is a much healthier way to go.  For more information you might want to contact a Naturopathic physician like Lahni DeAmicis - here's her url http://www.spaceandtime.com/\n\nShe has had remarkable success with women in this area - usually via email even.  Peace

Yes. that's why I stopped wearing tighty whities (the yellow spot was driving me nuts) and why I got one of those rugs that go around the front of the toilet.\n\nMy girlfriend designated her whole yard (2 acres) a urinating area (except the pool). One of the many reasons I love her (another is she lets me toss beer bottles onto the lawn when I'm floating around in the pool on one of those floating chairs).
