I would like to know if the reproductive organ may be lowered by straining during a bowel movement? Recently, I visited a gynecologist who said that I had a slightly lowered uterus. I never gave birth, so I associated it with my frequent constipation.

The causes of reproductive organ decline are usually complex and, in most cases, there is no single cause. The reasons leading to the reduction of the reproductive organ include numerous births, lifting loads, sagging tissues and organs with age, and chronic constipation and increased tightening of the abdominal pressure when passing stools can also have a significant impact.
