Uterine prolapse is a common gynecological disease, and its occurrence has a significant impact and many reasons. It is necessary to pay attention to prevention in daily life.
Causes of uterine prolapse
1. Delivery injury: The main cause of uterine prolapse. The pelvic floor is mainly composed of pelvic cavity, pelvic fascia, levator ani muscle and perineum muscle. Regardless of the amount of abdominal pressure generated during coughing, screen, or standing loads, the above structures or tissues can usually support and fix the organs in the pelvis, keeping them in their normal position. If giving birth, it is particularly difficult to give birth. Production lag. If the vaginal operation or the second production process is prolonged, the perineum is lacerated or stretched, the intramuscular membrane in the pelvis and the levator ani muscle are torn, the tissue at the bottom of the pelvis is weak, defective, the urogenital crack is enlarged, and the abdominal pressure is too high, pushing the large uterus that is not restored to the vagina, and the uterus is prolapsed. Especially during the postpartum period, poor food intake; Or if the fascia and levator ani muscle in the pelvic cavity do not recover well and work too early, especially with heavy physical labor; Improper tear repair, including perineal incision, can weaken the normal function of the pelvic floor and cause uterine or vaginal prolapse. Proliferation affects support for tissue recovery and is also a factor in sagging.
2. Ovarian dysfunction: female reproductive tract prolapse in clinical practice
3. Congenital factors: The uterine support structure caused by congenital dysplasia is weak, and the lack of tension is seen in nulliparous women.
4. Nutritional factors: Genital prolapse is related to malnutrition. When there is insufficient nutrition, physical weakness, muscle relaxation, and atrophy of the pelvic sarcolemma occur.
5. Increased intra-abdominal pressure: High abdominal pressure is an important factor in promoting or exacerbating reproductive tract prolapse.
6. Puerperal period: Many postpartum women prefer to sit on the moon in a supine position, which can easily cause chronic urinary stagnation. After childbirth, the uterus is prone to forming a posterior position. When abdominal pressure increases, the uterus slowly slides down the vagina, causing prolapse.
7. Postpartum labor: If a woman does not pay attention to adjustments after giving birth and instead squats down to do household chores, wash diapers, increase abdominal pressure, and increase the risk of uterine prolapse.
8. Dysplasia of reproductive organs: Women who have not undergone childbirth can also experience uterine prolapse, mainly due to incomplete development of the supporting tissues of their genitalia.
Preventive measures for uterine prolapse
1. Family planning, consciously delaying marriage and childbirth, and having fewer and better children. Due to excessive and dense childbirth, it not only affects health, but also reduces the elasticity of uterine tissue and muscles, increasing the possibility of uterine prolapse.
