A retroverted uterus and low-lying prolapse can cause lower abdominal pain and may or may not require surgery, depending on the severity and symptoms. A retroverted uterus (tilted backward) is common and often doesn't cause symptoms, but can sometimes be associated with pain, especially during menstruation or intercourse. Uterine prolapse, where the uterus descends into the vagina, can range from mild to severe and may cause discomfort or interfere with daily activities. Treatment options vary, with mild cases often managed with pelvic floor exercises and lifestyle changes, while more severe cases may require surgery.
