pelvic floor disorder

Pelvic floor disorder involves problems with the muscles and tissues that support the pelvic organs, including the bladder, uterus, and rectum. When these muscles weaken or become damaged, it can lead to issues such as urinary or fecal incontinence, pelvic pain, or organ prolapse—where organs slip out of their normal position. Causes include childbirth, aging, surgery, or increased pressure on the pelvis. Treatment options range from exercises and physical therapy to surgical procedures, aiming to strengthen or repair the pelvic support system and improve quality of life.
