I did put on my Dr. Google stethoscope and find lots of info about it. Here's just a little:
Types and Symptoms
All pelvic floor disorders are essentially hernias, in which tissue protrudes abnormally because another tissue is weakened. The different types of pelvic floor disorders are named according to the organ affected. Often, a woman has more than one type. In all types, the most common symptom is a feeling of heaviness or pressure in the area of the vagina—a feeling that the uterus, bladder, or rectum is dropping out. Symptoms tend to occur when the woman is upright and to disappear when she is lying down. For some women, sexual intercourse is painful. Mild cases may not cause symptoms until a woman is older.
Other than surgery, the only thing that can be done is strengthen the muscles around the vagina. So do your Kegel exercises, ladies!

This sounds deeply unpleasant. I will be doing kegels all day.
