Understanding Pelvic Floor Health: Why It Matters

The pelvic floor is a group of muscles, ligaments and connective tissue that span the base of your pelvis. They support organs like the bladder, uterus (in people who have one), and rectum, and play a key role in things like urinary and bowel control, sexual function, and core stability.

When pelvic-floor muscles become weak, over-tight, uncoordinated, or suffer trauma (for example from childbirth, surgery, aging, hormonal changes, or chronic strain), a variety of issues can emerge:

  • Urinary incontinence or urgency

  • Pelvic organ prolapse (feeling of “dropping” or heaviness)

  • Pain during sex (dyspareunia) or difficulty with arousal/orgasm

  • Reduced sexual satisfaction or sensation

  • Impact on mental health and body image

Because pelvic-floor health underpins so much of bodily and sexual wellness, it’s worth giving attention to—not just when something goes wrong, but as part of proactive self-care.
