What is anterior uterine wall bulge?

The uterus is very important to a woman. It can give birth to offspring for the whole family, bring herself the joy of new life, and is a way to continue her own life. However, there are many diseases that can unknowingly endanger the safety of the uterus and threaten our only reproductive base. Anterior uterine wall bulge is such a disease. So, what exactly is anterior uterine wall bulge? How is it different from anterior vaginal wall bulging?

The main symptom for women with anterior uterine wall bulging is vaginal prolapse or related symptoms, and they feel that something is protruding from the vagina. When the abdominal pressure increases due to labor, coughing, or exertion, or when urine accumulates in the bladder, the object will enlarge and urine will overflow; it will shrink or even disappear after resting in bed or urinating. Patients experience a feeling of vaginal fullness, a feeling of pelvic heaviness, stress urinary incontinence or a feeling of incomplete urination, lumbar pain that worsens after standing for a long time, and difficulty in sexual intercourse. Uterine prolapse is also called uterine prolapse. The inner wall of the uterus cannot contract and recover well, and it prolapses into the vagina, and in severe cases may extend outside the body. The common symptoms of uterine prolapse include at least a feeling of falling (the feeling that something is about to fall out of the lower abdomen), usually back pain, and in severe cases, it can affect the bladder and rectum, causing frequent urination, incomplete urination, or constipation. Anterior vaginal wall prolapse and uterine prolapse are two different concepts. The treatment for uterine prolapse is surgical therapy, and the indications for surgical treatment of anterior vaginal wall prolapse are: ① severe prolapse; ② prolapse leading to urinary retention or recurrent cystitis; ③ patients with stress urinary incontinence should prevent birth trauma, and menopausal women should actively exercise to increase the function of the pelvic muscles.

Anterior uterine wall bulging is not a rare disease at present. Mild anterior uterine wall bulge can be treated with medication and corrected by wearing a pessary. If it is a severe prolapse of the anterior uterine wall, you should follow the doctor's instructions and undergo surgical treatment. Therefore, in order to prevent this disease, women should exercise more to enhance their pelvic function.
