Pelvic Floor and Intimate Health FAQ

What is the pelvic floor and what does it do?

The pelvic floor is a group of muscles and tissues that closes off the bottom of the pelvis, between the pubic bone and the tailbone. It supports the pelvic organs (bladder, womb, rectum), helps you control your bladder and bowel, and plays a role in sex. Like any muscle, it can weaken (pregnancy, childbirth, menopause, repeated strain) or, on the contrary, become too tight.

How can you strengthen your pelvic floor?

To strengthen your pelvic floor, you need to voluntarily contract the pelvic muscles (as if trying to hold in gas or the urge to urinate) only when you exhale. Do progressive exercises lying on your back or on all fours, making sure not to hold your breath or tense your buttocks. You can combine these contraction exercises with a connected biofeedback device used at home, such as Emy Trainer. This device, inserted into the vagina, tracks your muscle contractions in real time and lets you do fun exercises on your smartphone while measuring your progress.

How can you tell if you have a weakened pelvic floor?

A weakened pelvic floor is mainly recognized by urinary leaks or involuntary gas during an effort such as laughing, coughing, or jumping. It can also cause a feeling of heaviness or pressure in the lower abdomen, as well as reduced sensation or discomfort and pain during sex. These topics are common in consultations: there is no need to feel embarrassed about bringing them up. Only a manual assessment by a midwife or physiotherapist will make it possible to accurately assess the tone of your muscles and confirm the need for rehabilitation.
