406. Prolapse & Pelvic Floor Strength in Perimenopause & Menopause with Dr. Sara Reardon


Listen Later

As if midlife didn’t bring enough changes to worry about, you suddenly get hit with pelvic floor problems. What in the world? Prolapse, UTI’s, bladder leakage…these issues can come out of nowhere in midlife and be really debilitating.

To help us navigate pelvic floor health we’ve got Dr. Sara Reardon, also known as the Vagina Whisperer, back on the podcast this week. Dr. Reardon is sharing some really helpful tips on how to keep your pelvic floor strong and functioning well through perimenopause and well into your post-menopause years.

Together we’ll discuss:

  • why women start having more UTIs, bladder issues, painful sex and prolapse in midlife
  • how hormonal changes affect pelvic floor issues
  • hormone therapy and the benefits of seeing a pelvic floor therapist.
  • things you can do proactively to help prevent and manage these issues
  • If you want to avoid spending the last few decades of your life needing pads, adult diapers and even prolapse surgery, then you’re not going to want to miss this episode!
