do you need pelvic floor pt?
if you’re pregnant or postpartum, the answer is probably yes - even if you feel fine right now.
Signs You Need Pelvic Floor PT
You might benefit from pelvic floor physical therapy if you experience any of the following during or after pregnancy:
Leaking pee when you sneeze, cough, laugh, or exercise
Feel like you have to pee all the time or can’t make it to the bathroom fast enough
Have pain during sex or feel nervous about having sex again after giving birth
Feel heaviness, pressure, or a bulge “down there”
Have lower back, upper back/neck, hip, or pelvic pain that won’t go away
Struggle with pooping or have to strain a lot
Notice a gap or dome in your abdomen when you do a crunch (Diastasis Recti or DRA)
Want to get back to working out but something feels “off”
Here’s the truth: up to 75% of women who give birth will develop pelvic floor issues. But most never get help because they think it’s just “part of having a baby”.
It’s not. And you don’t have to live with it.
what about prevention?
“I don’t have any of those problems…do I still need PT?”
Yes! Think of pelvic floor PT like taking your prenatal vitamins. You don’t wait until something goes wrong to take care of yourself.
Pelvic floor PT while you’re pregnant helps you:
Get your body ready for labor & delivery
Learn how to push for vaginal delivery the right way
Lower your chances of tearing during vaginal birth
Prevent problems from happening in the first place
Get back to exercise safely after baby arrives
The best time to take care of your pelvic floor is before things start going wrong.
