After giving birth, it’s crucial to prioritize pelvic floor muscle health. Symptoms like urinary or fecal incontinence, pelvic pain, or prolapse indicate the need for pelvic floor therapy. The optimal time to start therapy is within the first 6-8 weeks postpartum, as this allows for early intervention and recovery. It’s important to see a healthcare professional who specializes in pelvic floor therapy, such as a physical therapist or women’s health nurse practitioner, to assess the situation and provide personalized guidance.
