2. Pregnancy: This is the most common cause of uterine prolapse. Generally speaking, women born multiple times have a high probability of uterine prolapse. However, even during the first pregnancy, uterine prolapse may occur. Because late pregnancy and childbirth injuries such as giant babies and dystocia may also damage the uterine ligaments.
