Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Chen Zhe
The lateral position can improve a retroverted uterus. This sleeping posture helps relieve pressure on the pelvic floor muscles, as well as reduce stress on the uterine ligaments, promoting normal blood circulation. A backward displacement of the uterus may cause the ovaries and fallopian tubes to droop downward and backward, leading to positional changes and pelvic venous congestion. In daily life, regular exercise can also be performed to strengthen the muscular support of the pelvic floor.
