What are the risk factors associated with uterine prolapse?

-

 


Uterine prolapse occurs when the uterus descends from its normal position in the pelvis and protrudes into or outside the vaginal canal. While any woman can develop uterine prolapse, certain factors may increase the risk. Here are some factors that can contribute to the development of uterine prolapse:

  1. Age
  2. Childbirth
  3. Weakening of Pelvic Floor Muscles
  4. Estrogen Levels
  5. Genetic Factors
  6. Chronic Conditions
  7. Prior Pelvic Surgery
It's important to note that while these factors may increase the risk of uterine prolapse, it does not mean that every woman with these factors will develop the condition.
