When women have issues “down there”, it’s not something they like to talk about. However, if you’re suffering from any of these 3 problems, they’re easy to fix:

1. Heavy periods

Since the beginning of time, women have been dealing with heavy periods – or, menorrhagia, as they’re known in the medical world. Whatever you call them, most women think that they’re just an issue they have to live with. However, heavy periods can be debilitating. They can make you tired, cause you pain, and even force you to miss out on your favorite activities. Menorrhagia can even lead to bleeding in between periods. If you ignore the problem long enough, you can even develop dangerous conditions like anemia.

So, how do you get rid of them?

Heavy periods can be a thing of the past, if you go through a simple surgery called endometrial ablation. Don’t worry – the name sounds scarier than the procedure! During surgery, your doctor will use a laser to destroy part of your uterine lining. As a result, your body will create scar tissue in the area, preventing future uterine bleeding from developing.

2. Uterine prolapse

If you suffer from incontinence or irregular bowel habits, you could be one of the millions of women who has a uterine prolapse. Basically, that’s a fancy way of saying that your pelvic muscles aren’t strong enough to hold your organs up anymore. As a result, they sink down into your vagina.

Many women think they have to live with a uterine prolapse because they don’t think their symptoms are serious enough to see a doctor. In many cases, women only experience things like losing urine when they sneeze or cough. They see minor things like this as being “a sign of getting older”, when, in reality, it’s much more serious than that.

So, how do you fix the problem?

A qualified doctor can fix your uterine prolapse in surgery, by inserting a small sling. The sling will take the place of your weak muscles and keep your pelvic organs where they’re supposed to be.

3. Sexual issues

Most women don’t like to talk about it, but they don’t like the way their vagina looks. Or, they may be suffering from a loss of sensation during sex. Either way, it’s a common problem that’s not tough to fix.

So, how do you do it?

With a technique called a labiaplasty. During one, your doctor will aesthetically enhance the outside of your vagina, so that it looks better. A labiaplasty can also eliminate the stretching that comes from childbirth – giving you more sexual sensation in the process.
