This is an interesting topic. I've been wondering if the pouch could prolapse. What does it feel like? For me, it feel like my pelvic floor has dropped down, put I can "push" it back up into place. @scallop or @CTBarristerr, do my symptoms sound like prolapse?

I have had the banding procedure for prolapses done a few times. Unfortunately it has happened numerous times but each time Dr Shen has been able to fix the problem. Let me know if you have any questions!

Hi Jessica -- I do have questions: 1- Do you have any idea how many patients have had the banding with Dr. Shen? (He hasn't answered me.). 2- Do you know if there are any downsides or adverse events associated with the banding? 3- Did you have any problems or discomfort following the procedures and if yes, how long did they last?

Thank you so much!
