Heaviness in the Vagina

I dont know whether to go to a doctor or not..its not really bad, but noticeable at times.

What did you have done? I am also going to Pelvic Floor Phy Ther. I have been diagnosed with pelvic floor disorder/short pelvic. It is caused by surgery. I have been such a stress basket that I have basically tightened my whole body for weeks..........thus the pelvic floor pain and tightness. This can mimic some of the symptoms that I have........

*the feeling that something is falling out
*urinary urgency/frequency
*pain when urinating
*pelvic pain

I sound like a mess..........never had any health issues until this surgery it is very depressing

If you are nervous you could go to your surgeon, I know it might make you feel better. I am sure you are fine....maybe just healing still

I had a TAH. only symptoms are the dryness or something inside.
have no bladder or urinating problems at all.in fact thats better than before.
I do know that my pelvic floor muscles are weak and I am doing exercises every day..but am finding that hard going...

You sound like you are on the right track. Good for you to be doing your exercises. I don't know your age but maybe the dryness could mean you need some vaginal Estrogen cream. If you kept your ovaries and they are still working.........then maybe you are ok.. I put a vaginal Estriol cream in 5 nights a week. My dr. perscribed premarin but there is breast cancer in the fam so I went the bioidentical route.

I did have my ovaries removed as well..Im 50 this year..she put the estrogen implant in at the time of the op..so no hot flushes etc for me at the moment...i feel good apart from this.

O that's good then.........I hope everything works out for you, keep me posted on your progress. I have an appt. next week with my Dr. One of many past and future. I had a CT scan yesterday, so I will find out the results. Have a good evening.

you too...thanks for your support..really appreciated :-)
