Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that pregnancy and childbirth are main causes of pelvic floor weakness or injury?

Yes. Extensive clinical and epidemiological evidence confirms that pregnancy and childbirth are primary contributors to pelvic floor weakness, trauma, and subsequent dysfunction.

Verdict: SUPPORTED · 5 sources for, 0 against · Last checked

The analysis

The retrieved literature consistently supports the claim that pregnancy and childbirth are primary causes of pelvic floor weakness or injury. Multiple studies (such as [0], [2], [4], [5], and [6]) establish pregnancy and delivery factors as major risk factors for pelvic floor disorders, electromyographic impairment, and prolapse. None of the provided papers refute this relationship.
