Experts said genital prolapse was a very common gynaecological problem. Another very common and frequently under-estimated problem in women, which was discussed at the workshop, was stress incontinence of urine, which may or may not be accompanied by prolapse.
“This symptom is reported by women as leakage of urine during coughing or sneezing. Majority of the Indian women is reluctant to express their urinary problems and are not aware of availability of specialized services. This should change in this era of women’s empowerment,” said the medical medical experts.
