What is the cause of uterine prolapse in women?

In our daily life, uterine prolapse is a common disease among women. Many women may experience uterine prolapse after giving birth, or due to some other reasons, which is a pathological phenomenon. Uterine prolapse is caused by many reasons. It brings inconvenience to our lives. This makes us very worried about our bodies. What causes uterine prolapse in women?

There are many reasons for uterine prolapse. Among them, relaxation of pelvic muscle tissue caused by premature and excessive childbirth in young people, and relaxation of pelvic floor ligaments caused by decreased hormone levels after menopause are the main causes of this disease. Injuries during natural childbirth, premature use of abdominal pressure or cesarean section without full dilation of the uterus can also cause excessive stretching and laceration of paracervical tissue, pelvic fascia, and main fascia of pelvic floor muscles, which weakens or loses their supporting function and causes uterine prolapse. In addition, insufficient rest after childbirth, premature physical labor, especially physical labor that requires abdominal pressure such as lifting heavy objects, as well as long-term excessive abdominal pressure caused by long-term constipation, chronic cough, ascites due to cirrhosis, etc., can all induce uterine prolapse.

Uterine prolapse is not inevitable. Women in menopause should pay attention to the combination of work and rest, postpartum women should get enough rest, and elderly women should pay attention to nutrition and do more anal lifting exercises on a daily basis, all of which can effectively prevent and treat uterine prolapse.

There are many treatments for uterine prolapse, which can be roughly divided into surgical and non-surgical treatments. Non-surgical treatment is the placement of a pessary, which is simple to operate but cannot cure the disease and will have varying degrees of impact on the patient's life.
