As women age, muscle and connective tissue decrease. This leads to sagging of the breasts, and diminished support for the urinary bladder, uterus, vagina, and rectum. As a result these organs can drop out of position (prolapse). This can lead to loss of control of micturition (incontinence) or difficult bowel movements. This effect of aging may be increased if the woman has had children with vaginal deliveries.
