Why It Happens

These muscles work hard. Sometimes they stop working together.

Your pelvic floor is a group of muscles that supports the bladder, uterus or prostate, and rectum. It plays a big role in core stability, continence, and everyday comfort. Pelvic floor dysfunction is far more common than most people realize, and many people live with it quietly because they don’t know effective treatment exists.

Problems start when these muscles become too tight, too weak, or uncoordinated. Pregnancy and childbirth, surgery, chronic strain, aging, high-impact activity, and some medical conditions can all play a part. Finding which of those applies to you is what shapes a plan that works.
