Why Optimizing The Pelvic Floor Matters During Preconception

We're digging into pelvic floor health and why this matters if you are TTC. Our Fab Fertile Method takes a personalized approach to fertility so that we can address missed healing opportunities that uncover the reason why you may be struggling to conceive. There are many types of stressors that could impact your body, from mental/emotional stress to food sensitivities, gut infections, environmental toxins and structural stress. Structural stress could be a pinched nerve or back pain, but it also may include pelvic floor dysfunction. If you are dealing with endometriosis, PCOS, Interstitial cystitis, incontinence, frequent urination, painful sex, constipation, c-section scar tissue and more, addressing your pelvic floor could be a great next step.
