Uterine Prolapse

"Uterine Prolapse" Issue / Symptom Connections

Below you will find various relationships to, and potential clinical treatment approaches for uterine prolapse.

It is critical to appreciate that in Chinese Medicine, treatment for "uterine prolapse" is rarely focused on the symptoms exclusively. Alternatively, a practitioner is looking at the factors that led to the development of "uterine prolapse" - i.e. the "cause(s)".
