I was wondering what are the causes of vaginal prolapse?

Vaginal prolapse: Loss of pelvic support due to aging, hormonal changes, pregnancy, chronic straining with constipation, chronic conditions like COPD and smoking associated with chronic cough..

Multiple Reasons: Vaginal prolapse is a type of hernia. Factors associated with prolapse are childbirth (especially with tears), obesity, chronic constipation, a history of a hysterectomy, and smoking. Genetics (family) also seems to have a part in causing vaginal prolapse, but how much is not known. These are just a few that have been identified; research continues to find out more reasons.
