Will doing Kegel exercises help my prolapsed uterus?

Well I think I have it but Im not sure but I will know tomorrow. I had my baby a month ago and when I look into my vagina I could see a part of my uterus. Also, Can I still get pregnant in the future?

I really doubt its a prolapsed uterus. It is probably still healing from child birth. The length of the average vagina is only about 3-4 inches long, The trauma caused by child birth may make the uterus visible now, but you are still healing. A true prolapsed uterus protrudes out side of the vagina. The only way to correct a prolapsed uterus is surgery, but a pessary can be used to keep the uterus in the vagina. I wouldn’t worry about it. It sounds normal given the circumstances.
