Your pelvic floor called to say, “Hey! Are you not noticing what’s going on down here?!”
We jest, but be honest: how much attention have you ever paid to your vulva, vagina, bladder, and everything else supported by your pelvic floor?
We thought so. That’s why we’re directing your attention ‘south’ this week.
Not only can it be dangerous to ignore symptoms, it is wholly unnecessary to suffer with irritation, pain, burning, peeing your pants, and all of the other things the majority of us just seem to put up with.
Close to 85% of us will experience symptoms of genitourinary syndrome of menopause, and the majority of us won’t seek care or will be dismissed by our medical provider when we do. This needs to stop.
We hope this week’s newsletter will inspire you to get the care you deserve.
Listen To This:
Learn how a Tinder date led to a shocking health discovery that has Rachel Bartholomew on a mission to revolutionize women’s health, one pelvic floor at a time.
Oh, and you’re gonna wanna check out the video for this one on our YouTube channel. Trust us. 😳
Learn About This:
Why do we ignore our pelvic health and just accept discomfort, pain, and peeing ourselves as part of being a woman of a certain age?
We hope this piece inspires you to ditch the shame and take action, because your vulva and everything else supported by your pelvic floor needs your attention.
Laugh Without Peeing:
Regularly peeing your pants might be common, but it’s not normal. We love this promo by our friend, Kathleen White. If you pee when you run, there is no maybe, call her. She can help you fix that. 😄
Need more convincing that you need to see a pelvic floor physio? Check out our podcast with Kathleen.
We Really Love:
Our friends at IRIS know the importance of paying attention to your vulva and vagina.
That’s why they’ve created a personal lubricant that should be on everyone’s nightstand and a vulva moisturizer to add to your daily skincare routine.
Thanks for reading. We hope this week’s roundup inspires some self-love and encourages you to ditch the shame and suffering. It’s time.💜
