Vaginal surgery after childbirth

Vaginal plastic surgery (vaginoplasty or colpoplasty) involves one or more plastic surgeries to eliminate damage, stretching, or other kind of anatomical damage to the vagina.

Vaginal surgery after childbirth

The birth of a child is a joy for any woman, many new bright feelings associated with the happiness of motherhood. But often the birth is not very smooth, there is a lot of stretching, sometimes not only the tissues are torn, but also the muscles.

The task of the obstetrician in this situation is not to let the future mother bleed, so the seams are superimposed. To think about the aesthetic side of such seams is not necessary. Scar tissue, formed at the seams, prevents the muscles from functioning at 100%. Due to this there is a stretching of the vagina, and sometimes a woman even loses the ability to get an orgasm (anorgasmia). All this significantly affects the intimate relationship with the partner.

Another consequence of gaps in labor is the increased predisposition of the injured vagina to inflammation and various neoplasms. Modern gynecologists in such cases recommend that women make vaginal plastic surgery. More often this operation is combined with the plastic of the cervix , which is also damaged in childbirth.

Today, the main methods for reducing the size of the vagina are:

The decision, by which way the vaginoplasty will be performed, completely falls on the plastic surgeon, which repels from the initial examination of the state of the walls of the vagina.

Vaginal wall plastic surgery

Front and back colporaphy - correction of the walls of the vagina allows you to return the elasticity of the muscles, as well as significantly reduce the volume of the vagina. Postoperative sutures do not remain, since all incisions are sewn with self-absorbable threads. Also, the advantage of such an operation on the plasticity of the vagina is that, if successful, it improves not only the quality of sexual life, but also the work of neighboring organs, such as the ureter and intestine, is normalized.

Vaginal surgery after removal of the uterus

After the operation to remove the uterus, it is possible that the vagina is dropped or dropped. Then a plastic surgery can also come to the rescue. In this case, the aesthetic side recedes into the background, the operation is prescribed for medical reasons.

Postoperative period after vaginal plasty

The operation, as a rule, lasts about two hours and is conducted mainly under general anesthesia. After vaginoplasty a woman needs a bed rest for three days, usually at this time the patient remains in the hospital. After discharge from the hospital, it takes time for complete rehabilitation. On average this takes about a month. The first few days are required to comply with a special diet, which mainly consists of liquid food. Sit the patient can not be the first two weeks, and the next 4 weeks is recommended to refrain from sex, and also it is not recommended to lead an active lifestyle, to lift heavy.

Sexual life after vaginal plastics

The quality of the intimate life and getting pleasure from it directly depends on the elasticity of the muscles of the vagina. Thanks to the operation, the vestibule vestibule becomes narrow, muscle tone is restored, resulting in sex after the vaginal plasty becomes as bright and exciting as before the birth of the child.
