My CD4 count is 150 and I have a third-degree uterus prolapse. The local gynecologist mentioned surgery might be an option if my CD4 reaches 350. What can I do to improve my CD4 count quickly or are there other treatment options for the prolapse in my current condition
A CD4 count of 150 indicates a severely weakened immune system due to HIV, and a third-degree uterine prolapse requires management. The most effective way to improve your CD4 count is through consistent adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) for HIV, which can increase your CD4 count by 100-150 cells/mm3 within the first year. For the prolapse, while surgery is an option, non-surgical approaches like pelvic floor exercises, pessary use, or physical therapy may provide relief and improve your condition
