There are several types of prolapse: 1  Cystocele--tissues between the vagina and bladder weaken, and the bladder falls into the vagina. 2  Rectocele--tissues between the vagina and rectum weaken, and the rectum falls into the vagina. 3  Enterocele--the small bowel falls through the apex of the vagina, often after a hysterectomy.
Genitourinary (GU) prolapse occurs when the normal support structures for the organs inside a woman's pelvis are weakened. The result is that one or more of the organs - the womb (uterus), the bladder or the back passage (rectum) - can drop down (prolapse) into the vagina. This may lead to no symptoms at all. However, it often causes discomfort in the vagina as well as other symptoms, including urinary and bowel problems.
