If these symptoms sound familiar, especially if you are a woman of childbearing age, you may have Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome, or POTS.

POTS is a condition where your heart beats too fast when you stand up from sitting or lying down because your body has trouble adjusting to being upright. It affects an estimated 1 to 3 million people in the United States, and while the majority are women, it can affect men, too.

POTS is a chronic condition and can be disruptive, but there are ways to manage your symptoms and improve your quality of life.

If you think you may have POTS, or if you’ve been diagnosed but aren’t sure what to do next, you don’t have to figure it out alone. Take the first step in managing your symptoms by setting up a Care Call with Treasure Valley Pelvic Health today: https://tvpelvichealth.com/schedule.

Cesarean sections, though quite common, make for quite a different recovery experience for the birthing parent. It takes longer to recover from a major abdominal surgery, and it's important to keep your body's stress response down by staying on top of pain relief in the first week.

We encourage pregnant parents to discuss with their providers before delivery how they can make a cesarean feel like a family-centered birth experience instead of a surgical procedure. Even when you're planning for a vaginal delivery, ask questions about gentle cesareans ahead of time — you never know when circumstances might shift the trajectory of your birth preferences.

Pelvic floor physical therapy can help you prepare your body for a cesarean (or vaginal) delivery ahead of labor. Our providers can also start providing cesarean recovery support in the weeks following your baby's birth.

Colon cancer screening should begin at age 45 for average risk adults. It's the No. 1 way to prevent colon cancer.

Pelvic floor physical therapy can help you prepare for and recover from colon cancer surgery. It helps by:

1. Preparing your body for surgery by strengthening muscles in and around the pelvic floor.

2. Restoring bowel control, improving constipation, reducing urgency, and adapting to new bowel patterns by building strength, coordination, and control after surgery.

3. Supporting s*xual health by addressing issues with erections, pain, weakness, or tension.

4. Improving your quality of life by reducing discomfort from chronic pain, sensitive nerves, and scarring through gentle manual techniques, stretching, and education.

Painful in*******se affects at least 1 in 5 women in the U.S., according to research published in the journal American Family Physician. While it's common, it's also treatable.

Pain with s*x can be influenced by:
▪ Pelvic floor muscle issues
▪ Nerve sensitivity
▪ Hormones and dryness
▪ Cervical tenderness
▪ Psychological, emotional, and social factors
▪ Tightness in nearby regions, such as the hips, back, or abdomen
▪ Other medical concerns

If you or your partner are experiencing pain with s*x, it's likely that medical assistance, skilled physical therapy, or a combination of the two ease your symptoms.
