Your doctor may recommend that you have a procedure or gynaecological surgery if non surgical options have not worked. Women's health physiotherapy can help to both prepair you for your surgery and support your rehabilitation after for an optimal recovery.
Common types of gynaecological surgery include:
- Hysterectomy
- Prolapse - surgical repair for prolapse (vaginal wall repair). There are several different types of surgery that involve lifting and supporting the pelvic organs.This could be by stitching them into place or supporting the existing tissues to make them stronger
- Incontinence surgery
Pelvic floor muscle training should always be the first line of treatment.
