Causes of uterine prolapse

The causes of uterine prolapse are generally estrogen deficiency, birth trauma, increased abdominal pressure, and advanced age.

Causes of uterine prolapse:

1. Estrogen deficiency: For women with premature ovarian failure, menopause and postmenopause, due to insufficient estrogen levels in the body, pelvic floor muscle relaxation and uterine prolapse may occur.

2. Birth injury: If the patient has dystocia, prolonged second stage of labor, or vaginal surgery during delivery, it is easy to damage the cervix, uterosacral ligaments, and pelvic floor muscles. If the patient's supporting tissue cannot return to normal after delivery, uterine prolapse may occur.

3. Increased abdominal pressure: Patients who frequently lift heavy objects or engage in physical labor for a long time, have long-term chronic coughs, constipation, etc., will increase abdominal pressure and lead to uterine prolapse.

4. Advanced age: As women age, estrogen secretion gradually decreases, and the pelvic floor tissue degenerates and atrophies, which can easily lead to uterine prolapse.

Things to note about uterine prolapse:

It is recommended that patients go to the hospital for examination and determine the cause of the disease, clarify the current degree of prolapse, and receive targeted treatment under the doctor's advice. Patients should follow the doctor's advice during treatment. They should also develop good living habits and eating habits, and eat more fruits and vegetables to enhance their own resistance.
