  • Do you experience pelvic heaviness that gets worse as you go through your day? 
  • Have you felt like something is bulging out of your vagina?
  • Has emptying your bladder and/or bowels become difficult chores?
  • Does it feel like your sexual sensations during intercourse have decreased since your last childbirth experience?

If your answer is yes to any of these questions, you may have pelvic organ prolapse.  

"Dr. Chase and Susan Hollinger were incredible!   I was worried I’d be uncomfortable discussing this problem;  but their positive and encouraging manner put me completely at ease.  Dr. Chase educated me on various treatment options and visually showed me how my organs were placed through a computer software program.  I felt that I completely understood my choices and that Dr. Chase fully understood my concerns.

The combination of Dr. Chase and Susan Hollinger’s technical skill and  kind understanding was exactly what I needed.  They did a phenomenal job!  I am now six weeks out of surgery and feel 100% better than I did before.  As a teacher, I do a lot of running around and this will be so much easier now.  We really don’t have to live with this!"

What is Pelvic Organ Prolapse?

When an organ sags or slips out of its normal position, it is called a prolapse.

The most common diagnoses are:

  • Cystocele: dropped bladder
  • Rectocele: makes it difficult to move your bowels. 
  • Uterine prolapse: dropped uterus
  • Vaginal prolapse: bulging vagina
  • Perineocele:  loose vaginal opening
