Estrogen and estrogen receptors are known to play important roles in the pathophysiology of pelvic organ prolapse (POP). We investigated whether estrogen receptor β (ERβ) gene polymorphisms were associated with POP by conducting a case-control association study in 69 women with POP and 141 women without POP.
