What is a prolapse of the female urethra?

The uterus and the bladder are held in their normal positions just above the inside end of the vagina by a "hammock" made up of supportive muscles and ligaments. Wear and tear on these supportive structures in the pelvis can allow the bottom of the uterus, the floor of the bladder or both to sag through the muscle and ligament layers. When this occurs, the uterus or bladder can create a bulge into the vagina. In severe cases, it is possible for the sagging uterus or bladder to work its way down far enough that the bulge can appear at the vagina's opening or even protrude from the opening. When the uterus sags downward, it is called uterine prolapse. When the bladder sags, it is called bladder prolapse, also known as a cystocele.

What is implantation of a zygote?

Implantation of a Zygote.... is where hundreds of Sperm meet with one egg... No, it isn't. That (above) is fertilization. After egg it fertilized in the fallopian tube its cells begin to divide, and it is now called a zygote. In a process that takes an average of 10 days, the zygote travels along the fallopian tube to the uterus (in this time it starts to form a shell that will become the placenta), and will attempt to implant into the uterine wall. The beginnings of the placenta attach to the uterus. Only about 1/3 of zygotes actually survive and manage implantation. If it achieves implantation, it has now reached embryonic stage. My book says more than 50% of embryos are spontaneously aborted by our bodies, due to health of the mother, teratogens, or malformations of the embryo. And another 5-10% are lost in the fetal stage (after 9 weeks), for various reasons. So only about 10% of fertilized eggs ever make it to infancy!


Does cervical cancer surgery affect tubal ligation's?

No. A tubal ligation severes the connection between the ovaries and the uterus. The ovaries float above the outside of the uterus and the fallopian tubes are the only opening into the top of the uterus. The cevix is the mouth of the uterus and is at the bottom of the uterus. The cervix is in the vagina and is not open to the area where the ovaries are.
