Pelvic Floor Secrets: Sex, Orgasms, Postpartum & Menopause | Dr Sara Reardon
Angela talks to Dr Sara Reardon, a pelvic health expert, about the often-overlooked topic of pelvic floor health.
They discuss the anatomy and function of the pelvic floor, the impact of pregnancy and childbirth on pelvic health, and the importance of understanding normal bladder and bowel function from a young age
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
Understanding the Pelvic Floor: The pelvic floor is a group of muscles that support pelvic organs and play a crucial role in functions such as urination, bowel movements, and sexual health
Importance of Education: Many women are not educated about what constitutes normal pelvic health, leading to prolonged suffering from conditions like endometriosis and pelvic floor issues
Impact of Physical Activity: Female athletes, especially those involved in high-impact sports like gymnastics and cheerleading, are at a higher risk for pelvic floor issues due to the stress and pressure placed on these muscles
Pelvic Floor Health in Menopause: The decline in estrogen during perimenopause and menopause can lead to vaginal dryness, painful intercourse, and weakened pelvic floor muscles.
TIMESTAMPS AND KEY TOPICS:
[00:01:07] Pelvic floor and endometriosis link.
[00:10:16] Orgasm and pelvic floor health.
[00:25:36] Importance of pelvic floor health.
