Ep. 88 Pelvic Floor Health Way Beyond Kegels with Dr. Maddy
Episode Summary:
In this episode, Nikki sits down with Dr. Maddy, a pelvic floor physical therapist, for a real talk on what’s really going on down there. From leaking when you sneeze to pain during sex and postpartum complications no one warns you about, this conversation is an unfiltered guide to pelvic floor health that every woman needs to hear.
They cover the myths we’ve been fed (hint: kegels aren’t a cure-all), the surprising signs of prolapse, and why issues like bladder spasms, constipation, or a “too tight” pelvic floor might be holding you back from feeling confident in your body. Whether you’re postpartum, perimenopausal, or just fed up with being dismissed, Dr. Maddy shares what’s fixable—and how to get the right help.
