Could you suffer a prolapse after a full hysterectomy?

Yes, it is possible to experience a prolapse after a full hysterectomy, although the risk may be lower than in women who have not had the surgery. Prolapse can occur if the pelvic floor muscles and ligaments become weakened, which can happen for various reasons, including aging, hormonal changes, or previous childbirth. Types of prolapse may include vaginal, bladder, or rectal prolapse, and symptoms can vary. If you have concerns about prolapse after a hysterectomy, it's important to discuss them with your healthcare provider.
