I just discovered yesterday that I have prolapse and need pelvic floor therapy. I remembered you had mentioned something about having this therapy in one of your stories. Today I searched your blog, hoping I could find more information, and I was happy I did! It encourages me that my issue can hopefully be corrected without surgery. If you hadn’t shared your experience, I wouldn’t have even known pelvic floor therapy was available.

Too often I hear women (and men!)say they had no idea pelvic floor therapy existed and they deal, silently, with pelvic floor issues for far too long. That has started to change some as more people share their experiences and women know it’s an option. Thank you for sharing your experience- I hope one day it’s not considered taboo to talk about one’s pelvic floor issues.

It is definitely not talked about enough and at first I felt very alone with my pelvic floor issues. I have also had success with pelvic floor therapy and encourage others to look into this. I did not have an incontinence issue, but pain walking and definitely running. My issues have improved and it is comforting to hear your story and progress!

So many people go through this and don’t talk about it or think it has to be their new normal. The more we all discuss it, the sooner everyone can feel better! Great job sharing!

This is great info! Many of us deal with this issue and you’re absolutely right, it needs to be talked about.

I do not even feel myself leaking pee, the doctor said that nerves were damaged during the last birth (21 YEARS ago) and when I contract the muscles things do not tighten correctly. He started talking surgery, but honestly I’ve had enough surgeries and was in no mood to schedule yet another. Your post has given me hope that I can improve things, and not feel like I smell like a wet diaper anytime I need to go to the restroom. I know you must understand that feeling. Just UGH. Since I live on the other side of the country from you, I’ll see if such a therapist exists here.

Any one that has this problem will totally appreciate your honesty. Thank you!

I am a physical therapist and it’s great to hear you spreading the importance of this lesser-known specialty of PT.
