Summary

This study compares two common surgeries for uterine prolapse (when the womb drops down). About 426 women will be randomly assigned to have either a Manchester procedure or a vaginal hysterectomy. Researchers will track success rates, symptom relief, and quality of life for up to 10 years to see which operation works better.
