Heavy physical work as well as obesity, pregnancy and childbirth put a strain on the musculature of the pelvic floor in women. The pelvic floor can no longer hold the uterus and vagiena well – both may sink down. The more the uterus descends, the more problems it causes. In a prolapsed uterus, the uterus is not only lowered, but it bulges out through the vagiena. The women notice a feeling of pressure in the vagiena and problems with sexual intercourse. Homeopathic remedies are only prescribed as an adjunct and not for the sole treatment of a prolapsed uterus.
