Can someone give me some personal info on dealing with a prolapsed uterus?

Older women never talk about this and I am looking for some information from someone who has dealt with it.

I’ve known several women with that condition- all mothers, and the solution is always a few stitches/ sling and you’re good to go. They were also told to do the kegel exercises to strengthen the muscles, but normally surgical intervention is required.

Yes, not me either but friends have had the condition and a sling put in. It is fairly minor surgery.

a friend is just dealing with this. She said there have been many problems with the mesh solution and multiple lawsuits. In her case, she was offered a hysterectomy which she is not getting at this time for certain reasons.
