During delivery, premature delivery, premature labor, delayed labor, and especially difficult vaginal delivery may cause excessive stretching or tearing of the uterine ligaments, parauterine tissues, and pelvic floor muscles and fascia. If you do not pay attention to health care after delivery, the "birth injuries" of these tissues will not recover well, which will affect the support of the uterus and become the main factor of uterine prolapse in the future. If you lie on your back frequently after delivery, the uterus will often tilt backward due to the relaxation of supporting tissues. The result of retroversion of the uterus makes the uterine axis consistent with the vaginal axis, creating conditions for uterine prolapse. If you engage in heavy physical labor too early after delivery, or have chronic cough, habitual constipation, or engage in squatting or standing work for a long time, the abdominal pressure will increase and cause the uterus to shift downward. Uterine prolapse often occurs in old age or begins to worsen after menopause. This is because after aging, estrogen levels decrease, and the uterine supporting tissue atrophies and lacks tension. By the same token, women with weak constitutions or congenital pelvic floor tissue abnormalities may suffer from uterine prolapse even if they are young, unmarried, and not pregnant.

Due to long-term exposure, it is often rubbed and becomes enlarged, easily damaged, infected or ulcerated, and secretes bloody pus-like fluid. When the uterus prolapses, the bladder is displaced and the urethra is compressed, often accompanied by frequent urination, difficulty urinating, urinary retention or urinary incontinence.
