PELVIC FLOOR THERAPY FOR REPRODUCTIVE AND SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION
The pelvic floor muscles play an important role in sexual and reproductive function, including arousal, comfort during intercourse, and orgasm. These muscles—and the surrounding joints and tissues—can also be affected by hormonal changes during pregnancy, after childbirth, through menopause, and even be affected by cancer medications.

Pelvic pain
“Sex is painful and it makes it really difficult for me to enjoy. It’s beginning to put a strain on our relationship”
“It is difficult for me to get aroused or to climax”
“I can’t insert a tampon because it really hurts”
“I’m pregnant and I’m not exactly sure how to physically prepare”
You shouldn’t feel dismissed if you have any of these symptoms during or after your pregnancy. It isn’t always “just part of it”.
