You may not spend much time thinking about your pelvic floor until it stops working like it’s supposed to. Your pelvic floor plays a crucial role in bladder and bowel control, sexual function, and core stability. If you have started to notice weak pelvic floor symptoms, you may be wondering what you can do to help improve your pelvic floor.
One of the first weak pelvic floor symptoms you may notice is urinary incontinence. This could occur when you laugh, sneeze or cough or it may interrupt exercise. You may also feel a sudden urge to urinate.
In some cases, women can experience pelvic organ prolapse. This may feel like heaviness or pressure in the pelvis or even protrusion of organs into the vagina.
Difficulty controlling bowel movements can also be a symptom of a weak pelvic floor.
Painful intercourse or lower back pain can also be signs that you need to strengthen your pelvic floor.
If you are experiencing any of these, you may have a weak pelvic floor that would benefit from treatment.
While a weak pelvic floor can cause discomfort, it is treatable.
Kegel exercises are a common recommendation for improving the strength of the muscles that support your pelvic floor. While these are simple to complete, it’s important that they are done correctly and consistently to see results.
You may consider seeing a pelvic floor physical therapist to create a personalized exercise program to address your specific needs.
Lifestyle changes like maintaining a healthy weight and managing constipation with a high fiber diet can also help to improve your weak pelvic floor symptoms.
