OM DENNE EPISODE
Have you been told that bladder leaks, pelvic pain, or discomfort during intimacy are just a normal part of getting older?
Many women in perimenopause and menopause experience symptoms like urinary urgency, leaking, pelvic pressure, vaginal discomfort, or pain with sex — but often suffer in silence or assume there's nothing they can do about it.
In this episode, Dr. Jessica Ritch is joined by pelvic floor physical therapist Dr. Rivka Friedman for an empowering conversation about pelvic floor health during midlife. They discuss how hormonal changes can impact the pelvic floor, why symptoms like bladder issues, prolapse, and pelvic pain are so common, and how pelvic floor therapy can help women regain comfort, confidence, and quality of life.
Whether you're dealing with symptoms yourself or simply want to better understand your body, this episode offers practical insights and hope. You'll learn why pelvic floor health is about much more than Kegels — and why it's never too late to seek support.
🎧 Listen now and discover how caring for your pelvic floor can help you thrive through perimenopause and menopause.
