No: Anal sex, constipation and genes are factors, but hysterectomy is not.

Worry, no; Care, yes: If you've had a hysterectomy that somehow resulted in rectal prolapse, of course this is something worth concern and discussing with your physician. This is not a common complication, but your doctor needs to know so that something can be done.
