What are the alternatives to colpocleisis?

Assuming vaginal prolapse, other possible treatments could include anything from estrogen replacement therapy to strengthen the vaginal wall, insertion of a pessary, or anterior posterior vaginal repair and sacrospinous colopexy. Options depend on severity of prolapse. In severe cases there are 2 options; obliterative (colpocleisis) or reconstructive (AP repair). Colpocleisis is generally reserved for severe prolapse in patients who are no longer sexually active. AP repair may preserve sexual function but does not attain the near 100% efficacy of colpocleisis.
