Pelvic Tissue Prolapse (Something Coming Down)

One of the symptoms of this is the feeling of 'something coming down' or indeed a laxity in the vagina.

Childbirth is mostly the main cause and women often put up with the problems that prolapse causes for many years. Many patients report difficulty emptying their bowels effectively when they defecate and others have co-existing urinary difficulties including incontinence. Many women also have difficulty with intercourse or the protrusion of a lump from the vagina, especially at the end of the day or when exercising.

A thorough assessment will lead to effective therapies being offered and this will include physiotherapy and / or surgery. The pros and cons of surgery will be discussed in detail and of course your views will be paramount. Sometimes, bowel symptoms will need thorough assessment by a doctor specialising in bowel problems and tests and / or a referral will be arranged.

    Dr Anil Sharma is a very professional, warm and charming person. He gives clear concise information about procedures which is empowering. I would highly recommend him as a gynaecologist. Anne, his practice nurse/ manager is also a very professional and delightful person. Thank you for your care., Allison

    Do you go off your gut feeling? I do, and I had to push my way through the health system to get answers and failed along the way. Until I met Dr. Sharma and all my issues made sense. A very clear, focused, caring Doctor/ Surgeon that listens and explains very clearly on what is the best outcome is for your health issue. I had a hysterectomy, I'm 50 and without his skill and experience I would have never recovered from my surgery so quickly. From pre-surgery, recovery, home recovery to complete recovery I was guided by Dr. Sharma and his nurse to allow for the best result possible from a surgery that I feared would change my life forever. Well it did and for the better! I'm 6 weeks post surgery back to my active life, feeling well and happy. I have much to be grateful for and so will you. Oh, and even though scars are part of your life story you may be concerned of those, Dr. Sharma considers those too and they are tiny! I know and have seen other post surgery clients who used someone else and the scars are very different to mine, much worse. A bit silly to focus on something so minute since good health means everything no matter the scar it leaves behind. Thank you Dr. Sharma

    I couldn't recommend Dr Anil and his receptionist more highly 😊 I was very worried about what I needed done and I was reassured and relaxed with a very smart, caring and funny doctor. Thank you so much you really put me at ease.

    What a blessing it was to have Dr Sharma as my surgeon recently for pelvic prolapse repair surgery. He explained the procedure very clearly, and though I was nervous and apprehensive. with his caring nature and humour, plus knowledge and experience, I felt safe in his hands. Thank you Anil, you are number One!!

    I have really enjoyed every meeting with Dr Anil Sharma. He is so charismatic. Such a nice feeling to know your problems are being handled in such a professional way. He is very caring, really funny, sympathetic, interesting and also interested in what you have to say. I am so lucky to have him alongside me when I have any gynecology problems. Right from the time you enter his rooms, at reception you are taken great care of by Anne - his lovely receptionist - and then usually very little wait time, you are then safe and secure in the knowledge you are getting the best care and attention you could possibly ask for.
