German term or phrase: Senkungsprobleme
Related to pregnancy, appears in the phrase "Therapie von Senkungsproblemen und Harninkontinenz". I'm guessing it may be to do with the pelvic floor dropping?

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) occurs when one or more organs in your pelvis—your uterus, vagina, urethra, bladder or rectum—shifts downward and bulges into or even out of your vaginal canal. In the United States, 24 percent of women have some sort of POP.

Just one symptom associated with the condition—urinary incontinence—costs the country $20 billion annually in direct and indirect medical costs, while surgeries to correct POP cost more than $1 billion annually.
