Pelvic Floor Dysfunction refers to difficulty relaxing, coordinating, or strengthening the muscles that support the bladder, uterus, and bowel.
These muscles play a central role in continence, sexual function, core stability, and overall pelvic health. When they become too tight, too weak, or out of sync, women may experience symptoms such as urinary urgency, leakage, constipation, pelvic pressure, pain with intercourse, or a feeling of heaviness in the pelvis.
This tag brings together evidence-based insights on how hormonal changes, childbirth, menopause, chronic stress, posture, and metabolic health influence pelvic floor function. It also highlights practical strategies, from physical therapy to lifestyle adjustments, that help women restore strength, mobility, and comfort.
Whether you are navigating new symptoms or seeking to better understand your pelvic health, this section supports you in building knowledge and confidence in a part of the body that is often overlooked but essential to long-term wellbeing.
