Postpartum moms, let’s talk about something that doesn’t get nearly enough attention: your ge***al hiatus and perineal body.
If you’re postpartum or experiencing pelvic heaviness, pressure, or a sensation of something bulging, these measurements can be valuable pieces of the puzzle when assessing your pelvic floor health and potential risk for pelvic organ prolapse.
✨ The ge***al hiatus is the opening in your pelvic floor, and the perineal body is the tissue between your vaginal opening and a**s. Assessing these structures, alongside a comprehensive pelvic floor examination, can help a skilled clinician better understand your support system and develop an individualized plan to help optimize your pelvic floor function.
You don’t have to wait until symptoms get worse to seek support. And you don’t have to accept pelvic heaviness or pressure as your new normal.
You deserve the best quality of care and that includes preventative measures 💜✨
