Thriving In Menopause

S4E4: S4 Ep 04 A wee problem - what's happening to your pelvic floor


Listen Later

Accidentally weeing when you laugh... a urinary tract infection...a vagina that's painfully tight...these and other problems 'down there' happen to a surprising number of us! In this episode pelvic health physiotherapist Heba Shaheed comes to our aid. She explains the changes that happen to our pelvic floor as a normal part of going through our 40s and 50s, and the wide range of niggles and embarassing problems that can happen as a result. The good news is that with the right help, most of the time these problems can be completely fixed. Find out what you can do in this no-holds-barred episode.

Heba Shaheed is a Jean Hailes' Women's Health Week champion. You can find more useful resources about your pelvic floor, bladder and bowel health at the Jean Hailes website here
