The Question About Queefing You've Been Too Embarrassed to Google
from Hope For Your Pelvic Floor - The Whole Body Pelvic Health Conversation · host Clairesparrowpilates
Women whisper this question to me at the end of class, hand over mouth, when nobody else is listening. It is time we just talked about it.In this episode I am covering queefing, vaginal wind, fanny farts, call it what you will. I share my own reformer moment that I would rather have forgotten, break down exactly what is happening in your body (the anatomy is actually reassuring), and explain why it happens more after birth or in perimenopause. This is not a pelvic floor problem. It is not a sign something has gone wrong. It is air, moving through the normal architecture of your body.We talk about why Kegels are not the answer, why the silence around this is costing women more than they realise, and what to do if it is becoming more frequent.Your body is not broken. The embarrassment was never yours to carry.Join the free monthly Pelvic Health Cafe, where no question is off the table: https://go.clairesparrowpilates.co.uk/pelvic-health-cafe-registerWatch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@hopeforyourpelvicfloorFind out more at: https://wholebodypelvichealth.co.ukFollow on Instagram: @hopeforyourpelvicfloorIf this helped you, please subscribe, leave a review and share this episode with someone who needs it.
