The pelvic floor muscles also help with bowel control. Sometimes when our muscles aren’t strong enough we will have fecal leakage or even constipation.

Urge Urinary Incontinence (UUI) is described as a sudden and often frequent, urgent sensation to have to use the bathroom. This may result in leakage suddenly and/or on the way to the restroom. One major reason this is happening is because the pelvic floor muscles may not be quite strong enough and not coordinating quickly enough, thus leading to urgency, frequency, and leakage.

Endometriosis is defined as the occurrence of tissue that normally lines the uterus starts to grow outside of the uterus. This can lead to some abdominal and pelvic discomfort and pain. Similar to IC/bladder pain and chronic pelvic pain, there can be a central nervous system disruption leading to a centralization of pain.
