Causes of uterine prolapse in women

In the eyes of many women, uterine shedding is not a disease, which shows a lack of understanding of the disease. Many women endure the disease silently after getting sick, and only a very few receive treatment. This is due to insufficient understanding of the causes of uterine prolapse, which makes the condition worse and affects the quality of life to a certain extent. So, what is the cause of uterine prolapse in women? Let us find out through the following.

Uterine prolapse is a common gynecological disease, which refers to the phenomenon that the uterus descends from its normal position along the vagina, the external cervical opening reaches below the level of the ischial spine, or even the uterus completely prolapses outside the vaginal opening.

Uterine prolapse is often accompanied by bulging of the anterior and posterior walls of the vagina. The patient feels a sense of falling in the perineum and a swelling protruding from the vagina. It is often accompanied by low back pain and abdominal distension, sometimes difficulty urinating or too frequent urination, fatigue, dizziness and tinnitus. Gynecological experts at Yueyang Shangmei pointed out that patients with uterine prolapse should avoid heavy physical labor, and avoid lifting, squatting, and jumping. For patients undergoing surgical treatment, they should rest properly after surgery and gradually resume normal labor. The main causes of this disease are physical weakness, which is worse after childbirth, qi deficiency or kidney deficiency, which lead to damage to the cell network and inability to lift the uterus.

Patients feel a sense of heaviness and distension in the perineum, and something is protruding from the vagina. The swelling may increase when standing or exhaling, and may shrink or return to its original size when lying down. The protruding material often becomes gradually dry, hard, and thickened due to friction, or it may rupture and exude purulent and bloody fluid, accompanied by symptoms such as low back pain, frequent urination, or urinary incontinence. The main reasons are damage to the cervix, cardinal cervical ligament and uterosacral ligament caused by delivery and failure of supporting tissues to return to normal after delivery. Most mothers in the postpartum period like to lie on their backs and are prone to chronic urinary retention. The uterus is prone to become posterior, with the axis of the uterus in the same direction as the axis of the vagina. When the abdominal pressure increases, the uterus will descend along the direction of the vagina and prolapse will occur. The habit of squatting and working after childbirth can increase abdominal pressure and cause uterine prolapse.

Do you know the reasons that cause women's uterine prolapse? Uterine shedding is not inevitable. Women should pay attention to the combination of work and rest. They should get enough rest after giving birth, pay attention to nutrition, and exercise more often. If you find that your uterus is prolapsed, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time. I believe you will recover soon.
