Why You’re Leaking After A C-Section Birth

from Stop Peeing Your Pants · host dr.kristinjohnson

Think you’re the only one peeing your pants after a C-section? You’re not—and it’s way more common than people talk about. In this episode, we break down how a C-section birth affects your pelvic floor, why sneezing, coughing, laughing, running, and jumping can still cause bladder leaks, and how scar tissue plays a role in urgency and urge incontinence. You’ll also learn what layers of tissue are impacted during a C-section and how all of this connects to postpartum bladder control, leaking, and pelvic floor dysfunction.Look inside the Stop Peeing Your Pants⁠ ⁠Course⁠⁠!Follow us on⁠ ⁠Instagram⁠⁠! @stoppeeingyourpants⁠Work with Dr. Kristin⁠ in person!
