Vaginal Prolapse Colpocleisis Lefort Surgery

Vaginal prolapse is a painful, embarrassing condition which adversely affects the lives of countless women. It is usually a secret women do not share with anyone except their partner or doctor. Many of us feel ashamed to admit it has happened to such an intimate part of our bodies. One reason is we don't want anyone picturing the bulge it makes. Another is since most women say no one ever told them this was a possibility we have no idea who else in our circle has dealt with it and if so, how? After interacting with a supportive group of women on Facebook, I decided to tell my personal story of vaginal vault prolapse surgery and recovery. This private group helps others by telling their stories of misery, surgeries and triumphs. The details of living with prolapse should not be kept secret, but shared with younger women to help them and prevent it happening to them. There are some preventions but only a few surgical cures. Colpocleisis LeFort Surgery is one that repairs prolapse and gives back freedom of movement and comfort. There is a serious trade-off which is reviewed in this book. It is an individual choice which is never made lightly. I made the choice and have not regretted it for a moment. I only wish it had not been necessary and that the gynecologists who treated me over the years had said even one word about prolapse prevention. I feel very let down by them. It could have been prevented. I hope the advice in this book helps to prevent it for others. Tell women. Share the information. This is a story of sadness, recovery and joy.
