Menopause Mastery: Pelvic Health & Hormones: Your Missing Piece in Women’s Wellness
Description
Pelvic health is a topic many women don't hear about until they experience pain or dysfunction, but it shouldn’t be that way. In this episode of Menopause Mastery, Dr. Betty Murray sits down with Dr. Kim Dixon to uncover the critical role of pelvic health during menopause, from childbirth recovery to managing perimenopausal changes. They dive into why pelvic floor issues are more common than you think, how hormonal shifts impact bladder, bowel, and sexual function, and why it's never too late to strengthen this essential part of your body. Whether you're struggling with leakage, back pain, or intimacy challenges, this conversation offers practical tools and empowering insights to help you regain control and confidence.
