Ep. 8: Pelvic Floor 101 (Part 1)

Today we explore what the pelvic floor is, what it does, why it's important, and how to tell if it may need a little support. We touch on bladder leakage, painful intercourse, and other symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction. What causes pelvic floor issues? We talk about some of the biggest culprits. Spoiler alert: pelvic floor dysfunction is not only for women who have had biological children! This episode is the perfect place to start as you explore the role of pelvic floor in a woman's reproductive health and overall health and wellness. NOTE: May not be suitable for all audiences.
