About this listen

Do you love exercising, but are limited by a bladder that leaks? Do you know where every restroom is on your daily commute? Are you avoiding sex due to pain or just bearing through it, wondering where all the fun went? Have you been told that you have vulvodynia, vestibulitis, pudendal neuralgia, or a "tight pelvic floor" and are just wondering what's really going on?

Millions of women struggle needlessly with pelvic floor dysfunction, causing bladder urgency, urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and pelvic pain that interferes with sexual function and other daily activities. The topic of women’s pelvic health still suffers from taboo and stigma, making good information and real solutions hard to come by.

Drawing on years of experience as a pelvic health physical therapy specialist, Debbie Cohen now lifts the veil of mystery and confusion surrounding these common ailments. Showing that these conditions are more than a nuisance and should not be ignored, Debbie connects women with the answers they need to get back to living the life they love, and maintain vibrant pelvic health well into their later years.

Listen to find out:

  • How to know whether or not you have pelvic floor dysfunction
  • Why doing more Kegels may not be the answer - and could be making matters worse
  • What are the common bladder habits of women who struggle with bladder control, and what to do, instead
  • How and when to start rehabilitating your pelvic floor and abdomen safely after giving birth
  • How to resolve sexual pain by treating the cause of the problem instead of numbing it or forcing through pain
  • How to treat your pelvic pain by looking beyond the pelvis
  • Why movement may be the key to getting your life back - even if you hurt too much to exercise
  • Why your health practitioners have not yet recommended pelvic rehabilitation for you
  • How to find and work with the best pelvic health specialist for you
  • What are you or your loved one missing out on most because of pelvic health concerns

Good for problem recognition

Good and in-depth explanations of pelvic floor issues. No DIY solutions in this book. Final chapters explain what professional help is available and what to expect.

No Exercises

This book was disappointing. Although it had some good info on disorders driven by pelvic floor health, I was expecting some specific recommendations on exercises and behaviors to help. Instead she just tries to sell you on seeing a pelvic floor PT.

Deceiving

Deceiving and disappointing. No exercises or possible solutions. Just basic info and an invitation to her practice.

Very informative

There is a lot of information in this listen, most of which I doubt most people would be aware of otherwise. The pelvic floor is a murky unknown, at least it was to me, but now I know how many conditions it can influence. I also like the author's reading, her voice is soothing and clear, and she obviously wants to educate listeners. After listening to this, i would feel much more comfortable and less embarrassed approaching a professional to address pelvic issues.
