Medigy: Pelvic Health

Pelvic health in healthcare refers to the physical and emotional well-being of the muscles, organs, and tissues in the pelvic region. This includes the muscles that support the bladder, uterus, and rectum, as well as the nerves and blood vessels that supply them.

Some common conditions that can affect pelvic health include:

Urinary incontinence (involuntary leakage of urine)

Pelvic organ prolapse (descending of pelvic organs)

Endometriosis (a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside of the uterus)

Interstitial cystitis (a chronic condition causing bladder pain and frequent urination)

Chronic pelvic pain (pain that lasts for six months or longer)

Treatment for pelvic health conditions can include physical therapy, medication, and surgery. Physical therapy for pelvic health can include exercises to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, which can help improve bladder control and reduce pelvic pain. Medications can be used to manage pain, reduce inflammation, or control muscle spasms. In some cases, surgery may be necessary to repair or remove damaged tissue.

Pelvic health is an important aspect of overall health and well-being. It is important for individuals to be aware of their pelvic health and to seek treatment if they experience any symptoms or concerns. Primary care physicians, OB-GYNs, and urologists are often the first point of contact for patients with pelvic health concerns.

It is also important for healthcare providers to have a holistic approach when it comes to treating pelvic health issues, as they may be caused by a combination of physical, emotional and psychological factors.
