Prolapsed urethral mucosa

Description

A condition characterised by a circular protrusion of the distal urethra mucosa through the external urethral meatus.

This condition is commonly asymptomatic in adolescents, or presents with vaginal bleeding and difficulty urinating in postmenopausal individuals.
