Postpartum Urogenital Problems

Postpartum urogenital problems refer to issues that women may experience in their urinary and reproductive systems after giving birth. These can include urinary incontinence (leaking urine when sneezing or laughing), pelvic organ prolapse (when pelvic organs descend), and painful sexual intercourse. These conditions can arise due to the physical stress of childbirth and hormonal changes. It’s important for new mothers to know that these issues are common and can often be treated effectively through pelvic floor exercises, physical therapy, or medical interventions. Seeking help from healthcare professionals can improve quality of life and recovery.
