What is the Feeling of Pressure in the Pelvic Area?
Pressure in the pelvic area can result from a variety of issues such as uterine prolapse, pelvic organ prolapse (POP), or even early stages of pregnancy. Uterine prolapse occurs when the uterus slips from its normal position into the vaginal canal, often due to weakened pelvic muscles. Pelvic organ prolapse can involve the bladder, rectum, or small intestines, causing a feeling of heaviness or pressure.
