Different or the same?

Body: 

Is uterine prolapse and uterovaginal prolapse one & the same? While I was told I had a uterine prolapse, in her report my urogyn called it a utrovaginal prolapse and wrote "Vagina: cervix and anterior fornix descend outside of hymen." In my research the two terms seem to be used interchangeably, it's confusing. Can anyone clear this up?

Hi Vitality,

The cervix is united with the bladder by way of the "supravaginal septum" - a bit of connective tissue that fuses them together right at the top of the front vaginal wall. This is why when one comes down the other is always close behind.

So is it the same Christine?
