Cystocele Health Center

A cystocele occurs when the supportive tissue between a female's bladder and vaginal wall weakens and stretches. allowing the bladder to bulge into the vagina. Straining the muscles which support the pelvic organs can lead to cystocele, also known as prolapsed bladder. Such straining can occur during vaginal birth, chronic constipation, violent coughing or heavy lifting. Cystoceles tend to cause problems after menopause as well, when estrogen levels decrease.
