Pelvic floor issues often worsen dramatically during perimenopause and menopause. By age 50, estrogen can drop by 50%, which decreases collagen production—the building block of pelvic floor tissue. Today you'll hear an informative conversation with PT Christina Walsh from Tighten Your Tinkler about pelvic floor health, particularly for women in perimenopause and menopause.  


Main points discussed:

1.  Why Pelvic Floor Issues Worsen with Age 

2.  Dysfunction vs. Prolapse 

3.  Medical Care Challenges 

4.  Birth and Risk Factors 

5.  Exercise Recommendations 

5.  Practical Tips to Start Today
