Incomplete uterine prolapse: when an incomplete uterine prolapse befalls,
the uterus is partly displaced into the vagina but does not project
Complete uterine prolapse: when a complete uterine prolapse befalls, there
is a part of the uterus bulging out of the vaginal opening.
Uterine prolapse is classified by its severity, determined by how far the uterus
has sloped:
1st grade: sloped to the upper vagina
2nd grade: descended to the introitus
3rd grade: cervix has sloped outside the introitus
4th grade: cervix and uterus have both sloped outside the introitus.
In some circumstances, uterine prolapse can cause obstacles, including ulceration
of visible tissue and prolapse of other pelvic organs such as the bladder (cystocele)
or rectum (rectocele).
