16 years old. Severe Pop. Help please.
I am a sixteen year old. Never even had my first kiss. 5'2 and 108lbs. I started to notice a bulge around 14 and now it is insanely bad. It is very bulged and I'm only sixteen so I'm honestly embarrassed to even talk to anyone about it. Everyone starts to see it after birth but obviously, I haven't done so. I always feel discomfort and i don't know if this is important, but my periods are not consistent. I have been experiencing a lot of pain in my lower stomach or between the hip area. sometimes my lower back hurts. I'm really afraid and I'm really seeking help. I just want some people who know of the problem to try and help. Is there a way to sort of reverse it to at least not bulge out? Or what should my next move be?
Hi there. I know it is very upsetting to find a bulge and any embarrassement you feel may make it difficult for you to reach out for help from people around you. However you will need to go to your Dr for an examination to get help and find out what is going on for you.
Because you are young be prepared to be polite but firm with your Dr about your concerns. Write down any questions you have so you are prepared for your appt. You would need to get a referral to see a Urogynecologist if you have prolapse so ask for this if your Dr either confirms you have prolapse or if they are unsure.
All women have to make this first move and it can feel upsetting but the more information you have the better you will feel in terms of understanding any prolapse you may have as well as knowing what your next step is.
There are many causal factors for prolapse so dont be put off asking your Dr about this.
Good luck and let us know how you get on
