The anterior wall of the vagina

Under the anterior wall of the vagina in gynecology is understood as an anatomical formation 3-4 mm thick, which together with the posterior wall form, the so-called vaginal vault. The anterior wall of the vagina with its upper third lies at the bottom of the bladder, and in the rest of the site it fuses with the wall of the urethra itself. It is somewhat shorter than the rear one. That is why the back of the vaginal arch is somewhat deeper than the anterior.

Violation of its position relative to other organs was called omission. Let's take a closer look at this disease.

Because of what happens the lowering of the anterior wall of the vagina?

This kind of disorder is provoked by stretching the ligaments that hold the organs of the small pelvis in the necessary position, and pressure them on the perineal region. This phenomenon is further enhanced by the fact that smooth muscle dysfunction occurs. As a result of this, under the pressure of the uterus along with the bladder or intestine, the front wall falls outside the sexual slit.

The next stage in the absence of medical measures, can be a prolapse of the anterior wall of the vagina. This disorder is accompanied by a so-called uterine prolapse, i.e. still by displacement, by partial or complete exit of it beyond the limits of the sexual slit outwards. As a rule, the loss of the wall is observed when:

• the birth of a large baby ;
• complication of the birth process;
• removal of the uterus without proper fixation of the vaginal dome;
• dysplasia of the connective tissue of the small pelvis.

How is this violation manifested?

Having dealt with where is located and how the front wall of the vagina looks, it is necessary to talk about how a woman can diagnose her descent.

The prolapse of the anterior vaginal wall in gynecology is commonly called the term cystocele. As a result of excessive pressure of the bladder on the weakened muscular septum and the vaginal wall, it extrudes through the genital slit outward.

In the early stages of the disease a woman learns about it only with physical exertion or with a prophylactic gynecological examination. In later stages, women complain of the sensation of a foreign body in the vagina, experience burning sensation and complain of the dryness of the intimate zone. When carrying out hygiene procedures, you can feel something sticking out of the vagina.

How to lift the front wall of the vagina and what to do if it is weakened?

Treatment of this type of disorder begins with the conduct of exercise therapy, the exercises of which allow you to increase muscle tone. The basis of this gymnastics is Kegel exercises .

Gymnastics with the lowering of the anterior wall of the vagina is carried out in 3 stages. The first involves slow tension and contraction of the muscles that are involved in urinating. The second stage involves more dynamic muscle contractions of the same area. At the third stage, pushing is carried out - the woman needs to strain the muscles of the abdominal press, as in childbirth, and at the same time, during the stress, stay for a few seconds.

If such a gymnastics has not given the proper result, resort to a surgical intervention. If it is impossible to carry out a pessary.
