Pelvic organ prolapse is common for women, but seldom is it openly talked about.
In New Zealand about 50% of women experience some degree of prolapse in their lifetime, though only about a quarter have symptoms.
Wellington-based pelvic health physiotherapist Liz Childs thinks there should be more education around prolapse prior to birth and checks made afterwards.
She joins Susie to looks at its prevalence, causes, surgery and recovery.
