Re: A Shocking Uterus Prolapse?
^^ What causes uterine prolapse? The uterus is held in place within the pelvis by a group of muscles and ligaments. As these structures weaken, they become unable to hold the uterus in position, and it begins to sag. There are several factors that may contribute to the weakening of the pelvic muscles, including: *Loss of muscle tone as the result of aging *Injury during childbirth, especially if the woman has had many babies or large babies (more than 9 pounds) *Other factors (Obesity, chronic coughing or straining and chronic constipation all place added tension on the pelvic muscles, and may contribute to the development of uterine prolapse.) Prolapsed Bladder CausesThe following factors are commonly associated with causing a prolapsed bladder: •Childbirth: This is the most common cause of a prolapsed bladder. The delivery process is stressful on the vaginal tissues and muscles, which support a woman's bladder. •Menopause: Estrogen, a hormone that helps maintain the strength and health of muscles in the vagina, is not produced after menopause. •Straining: Lifting heavy objects, straining during bowel movements, having a long-term condition that involves coughing, or having long-term constipation may damage the muscles of the pelvic floor.  |

Re: A Shocking Uterus Prolapse?
I worked at a nursing home where one of the older women had this. my supervisor had to rub some medicine on it each night until the woman went to have surgery. made me cringe each time to see it.  |
