The causes of soft tissue abnormalities can be multifactorial, including:
- Hormonal Imbalances: Conditions like fibroids and ovarian cysts are often influenced by hormone levels. - Genetics: A family history of certain conditions, such as endometriosis or fibroids, can increase the risk. - Surgery: Pelvic surgeries can lead to the formation of adhesions. - Infections: Pelvic inflammatory disease can result in scarring and adhesions. - Aging and Childbirth: These factors can weaken the pelvic floor muscles, contributing to pelvic organ prolapse.
