If you’ve ever wondered why hemorrhoids, constipation, or “smearing” show up with pelvic floor symptoms, or what actually happens in a colorectal exam, this episode makes it clear, calm, and doable. In this episode, I discuss the interconnected nature of urogynecology and colorectal health with Dr. Bethany Malone, a board-certified colon and rectal surgeon. The discussion covers how hormonal changes and colorectal issues like constipation, hemorrhoids, and IBS can impact urogynecologic and pelvic floor health. Bethany shares her journey in building patient trust, the nuances of colorectal surgery, and the importance of fiber in managing bowel health. We also explore the sensitive topics of fecal smearing, the significance of thorough examinations, and the role of pelvic floor physical therapy in maintaining overall health. Tune in to gain valuable insights into how these different areas of health are interlinked and the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in treating complex health issues.
