What is Rectal Prolapse?
A "prolapse" means that a body part has slipped forward or down from where it should be. A rectal prolapse happens when part or all of the wall of the rectum slides out of place, protruding out of the anus. It may be only part of the rectum lining that slips out of the anus or a complete prolapse, where the entire rectum wall slips out. As we age, our pelvic floor can become weaker and rectal prolapse can become more common in women over 50. Constipation or straining to have a bowel movement, lack of estrogen, trauma from childbirth or tissue damage from surgery may also be contributing factors.
