* Cervical/Vaginal Prolapse is common in mature females in the last trimester.
* The cervix is unable to support the foetus in '''late gestation'''.
* The vagina and/or cervix is expelled '''during delivery''' causing dystocia
* Uterine prolapse '''after delivery'''
=== Causes ===
* Overconditioning
* Lack of excercise
* Large number of offspring for the species concerned
* Diet
=== Treatment ===
* Wash the prolapse and manually replace
* A vaginal retention device can be used, but discomfort may induce contractions which is counter-productive.
* Vulvar lips can be sutured, but this does not accurately replace the cervix.
* Deep suture of the vaginal wall - '''Buhner suture''' - returns the cervix to the correct position.
