young pelvic organ prolapse

hi i 18 ftm got diagnosed with urethral prolapse, and bladder prolapse and im suspecting i might have rectocele too based on of my symptoms. i was diagnosed with pots earlier this year following dysautomia last year because of an increase in my symptoms causing me to need to go on medication. my gyno wasn’t very specific and ive never been to this clinic before since i live rurally with no speciality’s really nearby so i cant find a note only a care summary. i would think the urethal prolapse is getting advanced considering its sitting at the opening. my gyno highly suspects that i have ed’s and it makes a lot of sense with everything im experiencing down to nerve pain starting to advance now and chronic joint pain atleast since middle school. looking at the diagnostic criteria i can meet except having the rule outs. she did make it seem like im going to need to have surgery but i start physical therapy on friday and im wondering how much it’s actually helped people with the symptoms of it? should i try to hold off surgery as long as possible? im active and in shape, ive had an episode of inconsistence, ive been having to push to pee and still have so much urgency and i’m so afraid to piss myself in public or at work because i’ve had close calls. i just don’t want to deal with this anymore and im just in so much pain too and still getting things firgured out. my primary is looking into what referrals to make for me since she’s only ever had one other client with eds and she did not start the process for diagnosing them and they cognitively function differently so it’s a different/ new thing for her.
