According to WHO, 91% of women (50-79 years) showed some degree of prolapse. In developing countries it is the most common indication for gynaecological surgery. To identify various obstetric etiologies and to evaluate the prevalence of uterine prolapse in women who attended gynaecological OPD in shri satyasai medical college and research institute and SLIMS. This is a hospital based cross sectional study carried out for 70 women who has uterine prolapse. This study was conducted in shri satyasai medical college and research institute and Sri Lakshmi Narayana Institute Of Medical Sciences. A standardized data collection was used to review all outpatient. And the frequency of obstetrical factors is calculated. About 70 patients who attend the gynaecological OPD ,contribute to Uterine prolapse during the study period. Out of which 57.1%of patients are postmenopausal women.

By this study, the obstetrics determinants like age, parity, mode &place of delivery, duration of labour are strong and the leading cause of uterine prolapse in later ages. Thereby it lies in the hand of the every health care professionals to give proper antenatal and intranatal care to decrease the other gynaecological morbidity in the long run
