In this episode, I’m joined by Lance Frank, a pelvic floor physical therapist based in Atlanta who works mostly with male clients. We dive into a topic that’s so overlooked: pelvic floor dysfunction in men.

Lance breaks down what the male pelvic floor actually is, how it differs from the female anatomy, and why so many men struggle to get answers when dealing with symptoms like bladder urgency, pain, or even sexual dysfunction.

We talk about the stigma around men’s pelvic health, the confusion between pelvic floor issues and prostate problems, and how hard it can be for guys to find the right provider—or even feel comfortable enough to ask for help.

Lance also explains what chronic pelvic pain syndrome really is, why internal exams can be helpful (but aren’t always necessary), and what men should know if they’re dealing with bladder or bowel issues.

Whether you’re struggling with symptoms yourself or know someone who is, this conversation is packed with important insights—and reminders that pelvic health is not just a “women’s issue.
