question: Hello doctor, I am a 72-year-old female and I have a severe prolapse. I was told four years ago that I had a problem in my cervix. So was unable to have a ring fitted around the prolapse. I have been told that it is unlikely cancer. Now after having it all this time, I have been told there are alternatives to having a hysterectomy like having a mesh implant or having the prolapse stitched back. But, I am wondering if I could have either of these procedures due to whatever is on my cervix. I am on medications for diabetes and high blood pressure. Please help.
