Uterine Prolapse Surgery Cost in Chennai
Uterine prolapse surgery cost in Chennai is ₹1,00,000 to ₹1,50,000 at Unittas Hospital. Uterine prolapse happens when the muscles and ligaments holding the uterus weaken and it drops into the vagina. Surgery either removes the uterus and repairs the support around it, or repairs the support and keeps the uterus.
Many women describe it the same way: a heavy, dragging feeling, or something that feels like it is coming down. It can make standing, walking or lifting uncomfortable. If pelvic floor exercises or a pessary have not helped, surgery is usually the next step. Here is what it costs.
Covers room, theatre, surgeon, anaesthetist, nursing, tests and medicines for your stay. Package rates from our current hospital insurance tariff, effective July 2026.
With cashless insurance you pay only the non-payable items, not the full ₹1,00,000.
What you pay depends on your sum insured, your room-rent limit and any co-pay, so it is not a guaranteed figure. Our insurance desk checks your policy and confirms your exact share before you are admitted.
Free, no obligation. Our coordinator usually replies within 15 minutes.
Uterine Prolapse Surgery Cost in Chennai — the breakdown

The rates below are the Unittas package prices, taken from our published tariff. One figure, with the room, theatre, surgeon, anaesthetist, tests and medicines for the stay already inside it.
These are our package rates. The room you choose is what moves the price, so all three categories are shown.

When surgery is needed
Your surgeon may recommend it if:
- You can feel a bulge, or pressure that gets in the way of walking or standing
- You leak urine, struggle to empty your bladder, or have bowel trouble
- Exercises or a pessary have not helped enough
- The prolapse is moderate or severe and it is affecting your daily life
There are two main choices. The surgeon can remove the uterus and repair the support around it, or repair the support and keep the uterus. Which one suits you depends on your age, how severe the prolapse is, and what you want.

Questions people ask
Will I need my uterus removed for a prolapse?
Not always. Some operations repair the support and keep the uterus. Your age, your symptoms and what you want all come into the decision.
How long does uterine prolapse surgery take?
Between one and three hours, depending on which repair you need.
How long before I feel normal after prolapse surgery?
Most women manage light activity in two to four weeks, and get back to a full routine at around six weeks.
Can a prolapse come back after surgery?
It can, though it is uncommon. Following the aftercare advice and keeping your pelvic floor strong both lower the risk.
Will prolapse surgery change sex?
Many women find intercourse more comfortable once the prolapse is repaired. Some do not. Discuss it with your surgeon before you decide.
Do I need physiotherapy after prolapse surgery?
Yes. Pelvic floor physiotherapy strengthens the muscles that hold the repair, and it makes a real difference to the result.
