Recovery Update - 1 Month Post Prolapse Repair Surgery & Vaginal Hysterectomy

In this video about pelvic organ prolapse repair recovery, I provide updates about my pain and discomfort one month post surgery, talk about getting 'back to life,' a sickness, new and lingering urinary symptoms (urge incontinence), and battling UTIs. I also discuss how hard it is to follow surgery restrictions and the importance of advocating for your own health in the post surgery period.
