Prolapse Surgery in Sheffield
I have performed more than 3000 prolapse surgeries. But, not all prolapse patient needs it. Surgical treatment depends on
- the type of prolapse
- the severity of symptoms
- your age
- your activity level
- your medical background
Options may include pelvic floor advice, vaginal pessary treatment, or surgery for more significant or troublesome prolapse.
Prolapse surgery is available privately at Spire Claremont and Circle Thornbury hospitals. Procedures offered include sacrocolpopexy, sacrospinous fixation, hysteropexy, anterior repair, posterior repair, and vaginal hysterectomy with repair.

I was invited to speak on BBC Radio Sheffield about uterine conditions and women’s pelvic health.

Common Questions About Prolapse in Sheffield
What is vaginal prolapse?
Vaginal prolapse occurs when the pelvic floor support structures weaken and one or more pelvic organs — the bladder, uterus, or bowel — descend into or through the vaginal canal. It affects up to half of all women who have given birth, though not all cases cause symptoms requiring treatment.
Who is the leading prolapse surgeon in Sheffield?
Professor Swati Jha is a subspecialty-trained consultant urogynaecologist and Honorary Professor at the University of Sheffield, with over 15 years of dedicated experience in vaginal prolapse surgery. She holds FRCOG and RCOG subspecialty accreditation in urogynaecology, leads the urogynaecology training programme at Sheffield Teaching Hospitals, and consults privately at Spire Claremont and Circle Thornbury hospitals in Sheffield.
Can vaginal prolapse be treated without surgery?
Yes. Many women improve significantly with pelvic floor physiotherapy, vaginal pessary fitting, vaginal oestrogen (in postmenopausal women), and lifestyle changes. I consider surgery only when symptoms are severe, worsening, or when conservative treatment has not provided adequate relief.
Do I need a GP referral to see a private gynaecologist in Sheffield?
No. You can book a private consultation with me directly, without a GP referral. Contact my secretary at admin@swatijha.com or call 07990 251036.
What types of prolapse surgery are available privately in Sheffield?
I offer the full range of prolapse procedures including laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy, sacrospinous fixation, hysteropexy (uterus-preserving surgery), anterior colporrhaphy, posterior colporrhaphy, and vaginal hysterectomy with pelvic floor repair. Surgery is performed at Spire Claremont and Circle Thornbury hospitals in Sheffield.
How long is recovery from prolapse surgery?
Recovery depends on the procedure. Anterior or posterior repair typically requires four to six weeks before returning to non-strenuous activities. Laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy usually requires six to eight weeks. Lifting restrictions apply for at least twelve weeks following apical procedures.
How much does a private gynaecology consultation cost in Sheffield?
A new consultation costs £205. A follow-up appointment costs £125. Most major insurers are accepted including BUPA, AXA Health, Aviva, Vitality, Cigna, and WPA. No GP referral is required.
