In this episode, I asked Google Gemini the top 3 questions women search about stress incontinence and postpartum bladder leaks, then reviewed its pelvic floor rehab plan as a pelvic floor physical therapist.

You’ll also learn what layers of tissue are impacted during a C-section and how all of this connects to postpartum bladder control, leaking, and pelvic floor dysfunction.
