When pelvic floor health is compromised, the internal organs are no longer fully supported and you may not be able to control urine, faeces or wind. Common causes of pelvic floor issues include pregnancy, childbirth, prostate cancer treatment in males, obesity, and the associated straining of chronic constipation. What can be done to treat and/or prevent these symptoms? More than just Kegels!
