Features of the health status of women with genital prolapse

Abstract

Introduction. In recent years, more and more attention has been paid to the issues of genital prolapse. This is largely due to the increase in women life expectancy and the need to provide them with a decent quality of life, as prolapse is quite often accompanied by dysfunction of the pelvic organs. In recent years, there has been an increasing amount of literature on undifferentiated connective tissue dysplasia (UCTD). However, most of these studies consider therapeutic or vertebro-neurological problems, while the high prevalence rates of this pathology call for additional research on the pathogenetic mechanisms of the effect of UCTD on pelvic organ prolapse, which will allow us to decide on the choice of subsequent treatment.The purpose and objectives. Asess the effect of undifferentiated connective tissue dysplasia (UCTD) on the formation of disorders of the somatic, gynecological and reproductive health status in women with genital prolapse.Materials and methods. To achieve this goal, we examined 204 women with genital prolapse in the POP-Q classification of stage 2–3, of which 97 were diagnosed with UCTD (the main group), and the remaining 107 patients made up the comparison group.Results. To evaluate the influence of UCTD on the formation of somatic, gynecological and reproductive health disorders in women with genital prolapse. We analyzed anamnestic indications for somatic, gynecological and reproductive pathology of women, as well as assessed the current state of health of patients with genital prolapse. It was found that it is UCTD that determines the development of a particular form of gynecological pathology and affects the formation of genital prolapse.Conclusion. UCTD manifests as various forms of somatic and gynecological health disorders throughout the life of women with genital prolapse.
