The Pelvic Wellness Center opened in October 2024 to support both women and men's pelvic health. The center offers specialized treatment for pelvic pain, urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and sexual dysfunction. Mary Hitt, Director of the Pelvic Wellness Center at SIU Medicine, and Kaylie Caswell, Women's Health Nurse Practitioner and Sexuality Counselor at SIU Medicine, spoke with Community Voices about common reasons people visit the center, as well as topics related to pelvic health and sexual health counseling and education.

Send us a textIn this podcast episode, I discuss something incredibly important - and personal - that affects far too many women but isn't talked about enough: postnatal pelvic floor issues, even after a so-called ‘perfect' or ‘textbook' birth.After being a physio for pregnant women for nearly 2 decades, and having birthed 3 children myself, I'm still suprised we are not discussing this more...As a pelvic floor physiotherapist and mum of three, I've seen first-hand how the right information at the right time can change a woman's recovery—and her entire experience of motherhood. And that's exactly why I started the Pregnancy, Birth and Recovery Podcast.If you are pregnant, or newly postnatal, I trust you will love this episode.** This podcast has general information only.

Hello and welcome to this week's episode of the podcast, which is not suitablefor younger ears!I am delighted to chat with Talli Rosenbaum, a pioneer in both pelvic rehab and latterly in psychosexual health. I have had the pleasure of knowing Talli for many years; I took one of my first psychosexual trainings with her in Cambridge a decade ago. Talli initially worked as a PT in the US before changing directions and becoming a leader in psychosexual therapy, both clinically and from a research perspective. In this conversation we talked about the similarities, overlaps and also the differences in the two professions, and how setting boundaries for ourselves clinically and professionally can benefit not only the people we work with, but also our own professional stress levels.We also talked about various topics related to sexual health, pelvic rehabilitation, and trauma-informed care, emphasizing the importance of a more psychologically informed approach in these fields. We also explored the complexities of working with patients, particularly those experiencing pelvic floor issues, and the need for additional psychological support. The conversation also included discussions on the importance of sexual health and intimacy for cancer patients, as well as the changes in intimacy and libido after childbirthTalli talked about how pelvic health physiotherapists often have stronger interpersonal skills and empathy, which can lead to boundary challenges - and while we must be psychologically informed, we don't have to do it all by ourselves - multidisciplinary care is gold!Talli has lots of great resources on her website, tallirosenbaum.com and you can find her on instagram as well - I'm there too as @michellelyons_muliebrityWant to learn more about female sexual health, managing dyspareunia, contraception & fertility? I've got a course for that! All of my online courses, from female pelvic pain to menstrual through menopausal health, oncology rehab to bowel health & femalecentric approaches to back pain, can be found at my website, CelebrateMuliebrity.com. If you're a pelvic health clinician, make sure you're part of the conversation in my facebook group, Global Pelvic Physio - we have rich clinical conversations with pelvic health nerds from all over the world - over 11k of us!

Bladder leaks, dryness, and low libido aren't exactly dinner table topics… but maybe they should be. These issues are way more common than we think, especially during and after menopause, and they have a huge impact on how we feel day to day. That's why I sit down with Dr. Rena Malik, a Board-Certified Urologist and Sexual Medicine Specialist who's made it her mission to talk about the things most people won't. We talk about everything from pelvic floor problems to how hormones like estrogen and testosterone affect our sexual health and bladder function. Dr. Rena shares why stress makes things worse (yep, even your bladder feels it), and how simple things like breathing or pelvic floor therapy can help you get back in tune with your body. She also breaks down what options are really worth exploring—like vaginal estrogen, testosterone therapy, and a few new treatments you may not have heard of yet. If your body's been sending signals you've been ignoring, consider this your sign to tune in and start listening. And hey, if you're in the mood to give your body a little extra support, I've been loving the new Mighty Maca Mango lately. It's refreshing, light, and packed with all the superfood goodness—plus, it tastes amazing in sparkling water (or turned into a popsicle).

Pelvic floor disorders can wreak havoc on your well-being, especially as a woman who wants to run, jump, hike, bike, and otherwise enjoy an active life. Unfortunately, pelvic floor dysfunction is extremely common, with about half of us experiencing urinary incontinence alone (let alone painful sex, constipation, prolapse, and so forth). But we don't have to live with all these pelvic floor problems that are sometimes painted as just “normal aging.” This week we take an illuminating deep dive into what you need to know about pelvic floor health and function (spoiler: it's way more than Kegels) with Ingrid Harm-Ernandes, PT, author The Musculoskeletal Mystery: How to Solve Your Pelvic Floor Symptoms. Ingrid Harm-Ernandes, PT, WCS, BCB-PMD, is a board-certified women's health physical therapist with over 40 years of experience, including nearly three decades specializing in pelvic health. During her tenure at Duke University Health System, she treated patients across urogynecology and physical therapy clinics, co-directed the Women's Health Residency Program, and contributed to national pelvic floor research through the Pelvic Floor Disorders Network. A recognized leader in her field, Ingrid has served on committees for the APTA and AUGS, is a Medical Advisory Committee member for the National Menopause Foundation, and authored both scholarly articles and the book The Musculoskeletal Mystery: How to Solve Your Pelvic Floor Symptoms. Through her clinical work, writing, speaking, and “The Pelvic Detective” YouTube presence, she's helped demystify pelvic floor dysfunction—addressing conditions like incontinence, prolapse, pain with sex, and menopause-related changes—while empowering people with the knowledge to advocate for better care.ResourcesThe Musculoskeletal Mystery: How To Solve Your Pelvic Floor Symptoms hereGet 25% off all courses through the end of June 2025!

When Helinka Carr experienced limited rectal bleeding, because it was limited, she never thought her problem could rise to the level of cancer.  She also thought the bleeding might be diverticulitis, which had been suffered by members of her family.  However, at the urging of her doctor, she underwent blood tests and a colonoscopy.  The latter revealed that she had bowel cancer.  Thanks to two surgical procedures, she achieved survivorship but has to wear an ileostomy bag.  She tires easily, but had the energy to start a line of ostomy lingerie for bag-wearing women diagnosed with below-the-belt cancers.   Helinka Carr said when one experienced rectal bleeding for three weeks, that was the standard in the United Kingdom for being a candidate for bowel cancer.  Helinka while noticed bleeding in her rectum and in her stool, it didn't exist to the degree that aligned with the accepted standard for bowel cancer.  She also said her family had a history of diverticulitis, which also led her to believe that she was not a candidate for bowel cancer.   Nonetheless, her general practitioner urged her to get the bleeding checked out.  After a series of blood tests, Helinka underwent a colonoscopy and bowel cancer was indicated.   Once upon learning of her diagnosis, she immediately refused chemotherapy.  She agreed to a regimen of radiation treatment, combined with her self-styled complimentary hearing.  It took two surgeries, but her tumor was removed.  Helinka detested the radiation therapy, and firmly believes her practicing complimentary healing all by itself could have removed the majority of her tumor.   Despite achieving survivorship, the radiation continued to affect her.  She suffered from pelvic radiation disease, which robbed her of any feeling in her rectum or bladder, creating major problems any time she had to urinate or defecate.    Helinka's care team said she would need to be fitted for an ileostomy bag.  At first she was told she would only have to wear it for twelve weeks; but after it was removed, she was incontinent and was told she again would have to wear the bag, this time on a permanent basis.  Helinka has figured out a way to manage the bag, go out and enjoy normal activities and get six to eight hours of sleep each night.   Helinka's experience inspired her to devise a line of ostomy lingerie.  It is attractive underwear destined for bag-wearing women diagnosed with below-the-belt cancers.   By way of advice, Helinka Carr says regardless of your cancer diagnosis, you need to fiercely advocate for yourself.  That means asking lots of questions, and if your doctor cannot sufficiently answer your questions, to get another doctor.   Additional Resources:   Helinka's lingerie line: Unspokenrosebud-Etsy

Hey Girl! You know those moments that just make life feel so full circle? Well, that's what this episode felt like when I was interviewing my special guest for the show this week! Almost 8 yrs ago, I was just like you, searching instagram and social media for “Pelvic floor Exercises”, “Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy”, “Pregnancy Safe Exercises”,  “Prenatal Pelvic Floor” and more! Coming Fresh out of Grad school, pregnant with my second baby and now aware that Pelvic Floor PT exists and that guess what… I didn't need to pee my pants the last 6 years?! So I was motivated to keep my leaking from getting worse during the pregnancy and starting diving more into Pelvic Floor Health. At the time, I knew the “What” and some of the “Why” leaking and other pelvic issues occurred and that they were not normal, but I had yet to learn the “How” to fix it.     So after searching for reliable sources on social media (yes they exist but you have to do your research), I found the one and only Vaginal Whisperer, Dr. Sara Reardon. Wearing a Vulva costume and talking about taboo topics like poop and sex, she caught my attention immediately.  I started doing some of the exercises she talked about on her page and started to really see a difference and ultimately healed all of my incontinence! She was and is, a trailblazer for Pelvic health and Women's Health in general as she continues to educate, empower and support women all over the world while breaking down cultural barriers. With that being said, I am so thrilled to have Dr. Sara Reardon on the show this week to dive more into her story and how she continues to elevate the standard of care for women in the US and inspire clinicians (like me) to do the same!    Dr. Sara Reardon is a board-certified pelvic floor physical therapist with over 18 years of experience helping individuals prevent and overcome pelvic floor issues including, urinary leakage, painful sex, prolapse and discomfort during pregnancy, postpartum and menopause. Sara has been featured in Time, Yahoo, Harper's Bazaar, Romper, InStyle, Today, and numerous other podcasts, publications, and professional conferences about her advocacy and educational work as a pelvic floor therapist. She is also a TED presenter on Rethinking Postpartum Care. Sara is the Founder of The V-Hive, an online, on-demand pelvic floor fitness platform for pregnancy, postpartum, menopause, painful sex and pelvic floor strengthening. Sara lives in New Orleans with her husband and two sons. FLOORED: A Complete Guide to Women's Pelvic Floor Health at Every Age and Stage is her first book.   To connect with Sara or order her book Floored, see links at bottom of show notes.   If you want more support from me, reach out for 1:1 or group coaching, join my FREE and Private support group below and DOWNLOAD my new APP Pelvic Floor, Core & More that has my on demand 12 wk program, tracking features, pelvic floor 101 masterclass and more!    RESTORE is my first 12 wk online signature program hosted inside my new platform that will be an APP soon Pelvic Floor, Core & More!

In this episode, Jenna Perkins, RN, WHNP-BC, a board-certified women's health and gender-related nurse practitioner and founder of DiscovHER Health joins us for a discussion about the importance understanding of pelvic health, which includes both urinary, bladder and gynecological issues, especially during perimenopause and menopause, the growing role and responsibilities of that nurse practitioners (NP) and physician assistants (PA) have in patient care, and changes in estrogen during perimenopause and hormonal therapy options. Raised by her grandmother, a community healer, Jenna knew from a young age she would work in health care. Nursing became her path because of its focus on education and empowerment. After working in academic and corporate medicine, Jenna became disillusioned by the system's inability to provide holistic care and opened her practice to help women overcome their most intimate health needs through education and care.Jenna urges women to give themselves grace—healing often begins with awareness and gentleness, not doing more.Jenna and Claire Discuss: Pelvic Floor 101: Jenna calls it the “seat of life.” The pelvic floor is essential for urination, defecation, intimacy, breathing, and even emotional regulation. Dysfunction in this area can impact—and be impacted by—multiple body systems.How to Have a Healthy Pelvic Health: Deep and intentional breathing is foundational, and well-hydration supports bladder health. When to Seek Help: Don't wait until symptoms are severe. If you're experiencing vaginal dryness or itchiness, urinary changes (i.e., frequency or incontinence), discomfort during intimacy, or emotional distress, it's time to consult a professional.Symptom Management with Hormonal and non-hormonal Therapy: Local estrogen (cream or vaginal insert) that works only where it is place and systemic estrogen (topical patch or oral pill) that work system-wide; and non-hormonal medications that help with just hot flashes, skin treatments, hair loss and other issues but they do not address the root-cause of decreasing estrogen levels.Knowledge is power. Claire and Jenna emphasize how essential it is for women to understand their options and advocate for care that supports their whole-body health.This is a must-listen conversation for anyone seeking holistic, compassionate, and science-based care during midlife and beyond.Connect with Jenna:Website: https://discovherhealth.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DiscovHERhealthInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/discovherhealth/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DiscovHERhealth/podcastsDiscoverHER Health FREE Resources: https://discovherhealth.com/discovher-health-resources/

Most women don't realize just how much menopause messes with their pelvic floor—until they're leaking when they laugh or feeling like their body just isn't working the way it used to. These changes can feel confusing, isolating, and even a little embarrassing—but they're more common (and more fixable) than you think. This week, I sat down with my friend Kim Vopni—aka The Vagina Coach—to talk about what's really going on with your body during this phase of life. Kim's a certified personal trainer, menopause support practitioner, CEO of a Global Pelvic Health company, and the powerhouse behind a global pelvic health movement helping women ditch the pads and feel like themselves again. We talk about the stuff your doctor probably didn't mention—like how hormones impact your pelvic floor, why Kegels aren't the only answer, and how things like hydration and breathing actually matter more than you'd think. Kim breaks it all down in a way that's clear, real, and honestly... kind of freeing. We even get into prolapse (yep, that's a thing) and how recovery doesn't have to mean surgery or silence. Her Buff Muff Method makes pelvic health feel doable—and even fun. If you've ever crossed your legs when you sneeze or planned your errands around the nearest bathroom, this one's for you. You deserve to feel strong, supported, and in control of your body again. Oh—and speaking of support, I've been loving the new Mighty Maca Mango lately.

Pregnancy doesn't have to mean suffering through pain until delivery day. In this myth-busting episode, pelvic floor physical therapist Christina Prevett tackles one of pregnancy's most common yet misunderstood challenges: pelvic girdle pain.Between 50-75% of pregnant individuals experience muscle aches and pain, particularly around the pelvis. But the common advice to "just wait until the baby comes" or dismissing it as "normal pregnancy discomfort" prevents many from finding the relief they deserve. Christina systematically dismantles four harmful myths about pregnancy-related pelvic girdle pain, including the widespread misconception that the hormone relaxin is solely to blame.What's really happening when pregnancy causes pelvic pain? Christina explains how pregnancy shifts the balance between our body's static supports (ligaments) and dynamic supports (muscles), requiring our hip, inner thigh, and pelvic floor muscles to work harder. This understanding transforms how we approach treatment—instead of resting completely, strategic strengthening becomes crucial.Through practical modification strategies, supportive equipment recommendations, and specific strengthening exercises, Christina provides a comprehensive approach to managing pain during pregnancy. She shares her personal experience with pelvic girdle pain during both her pregnancies, demonstrating how active management rather than passive waiting led to quick relief.Whether you're currently pregnant and struggling with pain or a fitness professional working with pregnant clients, this episode delivers actionable strategies to transform the pregnancy experience from one of endurance to empowerment. Your pregnancy journey doesn't have to include unmanaged pain—there are evidence-based solutions waiting for you.___________________________________________________________________________Don't miss out on any of the TEA coming out of the Barbell Mamas by subscribing to our newsletter You can also follow us on Instagram and YouTube for all the up-to-date information you need about pelvic health and female athletes.

Hey Heal Squad! Get ready for a major education moment with Dr. Sara Reardon, board-certified pelvic floor physical therapist, TED presenter, and founder of The V-Hive platform. Dr. Sara (aka the Vagina Whisperer) is here to break down what the pelvic floor really is, why it matters WAY more than we've been taught, and how you can prevent and treat common issues like painful sex, urinary leakage, prolapse, constipation, and discomfort during pregnancy or menopause—without shame or mystery. She shares why so many of us were never taught about this essential part of our anatomy, how to know if you're experiencing tension vs. weakness, and how to start caring for this powerful part of your body through breath, awareness, and simple daily shifts (like stop pushing when you pee!). From taboo topics to everyday tips, this conversation will change how you view your pelvic floor—and give you the tools to reclaim your health at every stage of life! HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  Painful sex is a signal, not something to ignore. Pain with intimacy is a sign your body needs attention, not something to normalize. Pelvic floor therapy can address the root causes and help you reconnect with your body without fear or shame. Stop pushing when you pee. Straining during urination or bowel movements can weaken your pelvic floor over time. Practicing proper mechanics helps preserve pelvic health through every life stage. Tight isn't strong. A tight pelvic floor often mimics weakness, leading to pain, leaks, or dysfunction. Learning how to relax your pelvic floor is just as important as strengthening it. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Join In-Person Heal Retreat Waitlist! https://mariamenounos.myflodesk.com/heal-retreat-waitlist GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the.vagina.whisperer/?hl=en Website: https://thevagwhisperer.com/  Pre-Order Her Book!: https://thevagwhisperer.com/floored/  ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Belly fat isn't just about what we see in the mirror — and not all fat is created equal. Visceral fat is the deeper, more dangerous kind that wraps around your internal organs (like the liver, pancreas, and intestines) and acts like a hormone-releasing machine. It's not just sitting there — it's actively sabotaging your health.In this episode, Jen breaks down why visceral fat goes far beyond skin-deep, how menopause accelerates its impact, and how her Rise Strong Method can help you reclaim your energy, restore hormone balance, and rebuild strength — without flogging yourself at the gym.LINKS: Feed Your Body⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://jenniferjefferies.com/feed-your-body-eguide/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pelvic floor prolapse doesn't have to hold you back.

Let's be honest: when it comes to pelvic floor health, most of us have been fed a steady diet of silence, shame, and “just deal with it.” But that ends today. In this episode, we welcome Dr. Sara Reardon, aka The Vagina Whisperer (yes, really), a board-certified pelvic floor physical therapist, TED speaker, and author of FLOORED: A Complete Guide to Women's Pelvic Floor Health at Every Age and Stage. With nearly 20 years of experience, Sara is here to deliver straight talk and science-backed wisdom about what's actually going on down there. Pelvic floor dysfunction is common—but it's not normal. From postpartum issues to painful sex, pee leaks to prolapse, this is your permission slip to stop suffering in silence and start getting the care you deserve. No more brushing it off. No more white-knuckling your way through it. Just informed, empowered choices about your health and your body. In This Episode, We Cover: ✅ What your pelvic floor actually is and why it matters ✅ Signs it's not functioning properly (and that you shouldn't ignore) ✅ How to advocate for yourself in a healthcare system that often overlooks women ✅ Why pain, leakage, and shame are NOT normal parts of womanhood This isn't just a health issue—it's a confidence, autonomy, and quality of life issue. Understanding your body is woman's work. Taking care of it unapologetically? Also woman's work.

Most of us don't think much about our pelvic floor—until we start leaking when we laugh or feel pain we can't explain. That's why I had such a powerful conversation with my friend Jana Danielson, who knows this topic inside and out. She shared how her own journey through chronic pelvic pain led her to discover the healing power of breath, movement, and mindset. Jana's not just a wellness expert—she's a woman who turned her pain into purpose. From teaching Pilates to creating the world's first pelvic floor fitness tool (yes, the Cooch Ball is a thing—and it works), she's helping women wake up to what's possible when we actually tune in. We talked about why relaxing is just as important as strengthening, why your breath matters more than you think, and how to finally ditch the shame around this part of our body. She even shared a few exercises you can sneak into your day without anyone knowing. Oh—and if this chat sparks something in you, go check out the Pelvic Floor Empowerment Bundle at dranna.com/pelvicfloor. It's a beautiful way to support yourself at home. And just so you know, I've been sipping on the new Mighty Maca Mango and I'm obsessed—it's zesty, refreshing, and gives you that summer boost without the crash.
