Can skipping rope cause uterine prolapse?

Rope skipping is a common sport, but many people still worry about it when doing it. There are many sayings about skipping rope. Some people have heard that skipping rope can cause sagging breasts. Some even say that skipping rope can cause uterine prolapse. There are various theories, but there is not much evidence to prove it. So, can skipping rope cause uterine prolapse?

Rope skipping will not cause uterine prolapse. Suggestions: Generally speaking, the normal position of an adult woman's uterus is halfway in the center of the pelvis when standing, above the level of the ischial spine, adjacent to the bladder in front and the rectum behind, with the uterus tilted forward. The cervix and the uterus form an angle of 120-150°, in a forward tilted and flexed position. However, when a group of ligaments that maintain the normal position of the uterus are loose, long-term bed rest after delivery, pelvic inflammation, uterine body tumors, congenital dysplasia and other reasons, the uterus may be displaced, of which the most common is retroverted uterus. According to the degree of retroverted uterus, retroverted uterus is divided into grades I, II and III. For the treatment of uterine prolapse, the key to the treatment of symptomatic retroverted uterus patients is to reposition the uterus. Commonly used uterine repositioning methods include bimanual repositioning, trimanual repositioning, cervical clamp traction repositioning, chest-knee supine repositioning, surgical repositioning, etc. After manual repositioning, patients are required to do 1-2 chest-knee supine exercises every day after emptying their bowels and bladders.

Jumping rope frequently will not cause uterine prolapse, because the internal organs are surrounded by fat, which is generally very tight and not prone to prolapse and displacement.

In fact, there are several different opinions on the question of whether skipping rope can cause uterine prolapse. Looking at it from another perspective, if skipping rope really causes uterine prolapse, would so many people still like to skip rope? Therefore, all statements should be based on evidence. There are many reasons for uterine prolapse, and it is not necessarily related to skipping rope.
