摘要
Objectives: To evaluate the risk factors for pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and to determine the relationship between these risk factors and stage or other components of POP. Methods: 244 patients with primary POP and 314 women without POP were included. Age, parity, smoking, body mass index (BMI), menopause, and hormone replacement therapy (HRT) were investigated. Result: Independent risk factors for POP included age over 70, parity higher than 3, and menopause. Age, parity, menopause, and HRT were significantly associated with stage of POP. Genital hiatus (GH) and perineal body (PB) showed a significant positive and negative correlation with age and parity, respectively. Menopause and HRT were also associated with them. Conclusion: Age, parity and menopause are possible risk factors of POP and associated with the Lengths of GH and PB in POP women. Further, these risk factors and HRT are significantly correlated with the severity of the disease. (c) 2007 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics. Published by Elsevier Ireland Ltd.
