Curious about holistic ways to solve pelvic health issues like UTI, and pelvic pain?
Women are, unfortunately, prone to bladder leakage, digestive problems, urinary tract infections (UTI), pelvic pain, and pelvic organ prolapse. Any one of these problems come with symptoms that can worsen, and become “RED FLAGS”, requiring medical screening and treatment. Sometimes we may not even realize we are ill, until problems worsen, such as UTI causing fevers (a “RED FLAG for possible infections) and even sepsis. Shame, suffering, chronic illness and loss of function can be present with the specific pelvic health conditions as well.
The medical industry has done a poor job educating women about preventive and wellness care, with a focus on medical specialization and pharmaceutical treatment. Now, medical funding cuts are cascading across health care systems, limiting medical care even further. Believe it or not, it takes a decade or two for new treatments that are effective to become mainstream medical treatment. Think about the “ gut biome”, once relegated as nonsense, now emerging as vital for brain and body health, and ads for so many products that your head may spin! Now media is addressing the vaginal biome, and this is an area where self care is critical. Consumers are the last to know the top facts and science amidst the storm of media information.
The image of the iceberg, what we know is above the surface, what we don’t know is a giant area below our awareness. What do you need to know that you have no awareness of?
Here is a limited list of what you may not be aware of, that may be a challenge at some point in your life. Or, these conditions may affect someone you care about. The list is a proverbial “below the surface” iceberg of women’s health challenges.
Abdominal / Pelvic Pain
Bacterial Vaginosis
Bladder Leakage, Overactive Bladder, Bladder Pain
Constipation, IBS C, or loose stools, IBS D
Pelvic Organ Prolapse, or “POP”
Sexual Health Problems, Libido, dryness, pain concerns, lack of or reduced orgasm
Urinary Tract Infections, UTI
Vulvar, Vaginal, Genital discomfort, tender skin
The limited list above addresses many medical conditions for which there are holistic solutions for self care, which coordinate with medical care. First, it is critical that you find out “what is going on” vs jumping into self treatment. New or worsening abdominal and pelvic symptoms require medical screening and treatment. However there are gastroenterologist, gynecologist, physical therapist and other health care providers offering education and resources for your prevention and wellness care. Each item I list in my Pelvic Health Resources is curated for you to click on, or copy and paste into your browser, for more information.
Succinct explanations of what pelvic health conditions may occur, and why, along with medical care and self help tools are critical in womens health. Resources for UTI prevention, gut and vaginal biome healing are provided in my 10 page document . These resources are curated for their scientific backing and health care professional endorsement and utilization, yet I receive no proceeds for posting the products or educational links. Additionally, vaginal/pelvic muscle training equipment is wonderful for pain reduction and pleasure promotion, and educational links and resources are provided.
My passion here is global education and empowerment for women in pelvic care. (Look for future posts for males, not to be left out as they suffer pelvic conditions as well). I am delighted, as you may be, when you find great no nonsense education and you can shift your health into an improved state of being.
This is need to know info for women across the lifespan. The content is curated for you to discover vital self care and wellness resources from providers who are passionate about your wellness, and the prevention of infection and health risks. Once you access the information, feel free to reach out for more support on the topics. With great appreciation, I would love to hear from you on positive benefits you have gleaned from this content.
