How do you prevent uterus retroversion?

There is no sure way to prevent uterus retroversion, as it is usually a congenital condition. However, some factors that may increase the risk of uterus retroversion include:

- A family history of uterus retroversion. If your mother or sister has uterus retroversion, you are more likely to develop it as well.

- Being overweight or obese. Excess weight can put pressure on the uterus and cause it to tip backward.

- Having multiple pregnancies. The uterus may become retroverted after childbirth, especially if the pregnancies were close together.

- Having a uterine fibroid. A uterine fibroid is a noncancerous growth that can grow on the wall of the uterus. Fibroids can push the uterus out of its normal position.

If you are concerned about uterus retroversion, talk to your doctor. They can evaluate your condition and recommend treatment if necessary.
