8 symptoms most women don't realize are actually their PELVIC FLOOR asking for helpβ¦ π
You've been dismissing these as "normal." They're not. Your body is trying to tell you something. π¨
β
Lower back pain that never fully goes away
You've tried massage. You've tried stretching. Nothing works long-term. That's because your pelvic floor and lower back are deeply connected - when one suffers, so does the other.
β
Hip tightness no amount of stretching fixes
You foam roll. You do yoga. Still tight. Your pelvic floor attaches to your hips - a tight pelvic floor means tight hips. Every time.
β
Feeling like you need to p*e again 10 minutes after going
Not a small bladder. Not drinking too much water. It's incomplete emptying because your pelvic floor isn't releasing properly.
β
A tampon that won't stay in place or feels uncomfortable
This isn't about the tampon. It's about what's happening inside. Possible prolapse or pelvic floor weakness showing up.
β
Heaviness or dragging sensation by the end of the day
You're not imagining it. That "something falling out" feeling is your pelvic organs losing support. It's real - and it's treatable.
β
Constipation that came out of nowhere
Your pelvic floor has to RELAX for things to move. If it's too tight, nothing's going anywhere. No amount of fibre will fix a tense pelvic floor.
β
Pain or discomfort during or after intimacy
Not low libido. Not "just getting older." It's pelvic floor tension causing muscles that can't relax when they need to.
β
Needing to rush to the toilet the moment you get home
Latchkey urgency. Your brain has learned associations - key in door = release. It's retrainable. π
If you said 2 or more, your pelvic floor is asking for attention. Don't ignore it.
