These pelvic floor muscles are a small yet crucial aspect of your overall muscle structure. Women who have given birth vaginally are more susceptible to experience pelvic floor prolapse, making this area of muscles even more important to know about. Menopause can also cause various changes in the pelvic area, and the farther ahead a woman when she started menopause, the more likely she is to experience pelvic prolapse. Yes, this is in large part due to hormonal changes, however after menopause many women stop having sex. Overall, their body may be healthy, but this lack of intimacy impacts the pelvic area too. Women tend to become highly motivated to pursue pelvic floor therapy and other types of support only after they've experienced prolapse. Essentially, they\u2019re waiting until it\u2019s too late. Pelvic prolapse is usually diagnosed in an advanced state, and women aren\u2019t usually informed about it in any meaningful way during their lives. The earlier you start working on your pelvic health, the better results you\u2019ll have. It\u2019s important to have a significant amount of control over those muscles already in order to strengthen them. There\u2019s also a treatment called EMSELLA which is designed to help you work on your pelvic floor muscles. There\u2019s another device called the VTone which uses electrical stimulation. This intravaginal device makes contact with the appropriate muscle groups that women can control to their level of comfort. Neither of these treatments works overnight. It takes multiple treatments to produce significant results.   Connect with Dr. Cernaianu https:\/\/www.herabeautyandwellness.com\/  https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/herabeautyandwellness\/  https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/people\/Hera-Healthcare-Mirela-Cernaianu-MD\/100063462643162\/ ","author_name":"H.O.W.
