The role of pelvic floor muscle repair

Many mothers who have just given birth have asked privately whether it is really necessary for them to do pelvic floor muscle repair training as recommended by hospital experts. Pelvic floor muscle repair is a kind of postpartum recovery. Compared with exercising and restoring body shape after giving birth, pelvic floor muscle repair is very necessary. After giving birth, women's pelvic repair is greatly damaged. Some mothers have already started pelvic floor muscle training when they were pregnant. This shows how important pelvic repair is to women.

1. Why is it necessary to carry out pelvic floor muscle repair

First of all, the pelvic floor is not a piece of muscle, but like a net, it controls the woman's bladder. The urethra, bladder, vagina, uterus, duodenum and other internal organs are firmly suspended by this "net", thereby maintaining a normal position to perform its function. Therefore, pelvic repair is very important, because once this network is loose, many organ functions of the mother will be affected.

Whether you choose a natural birth or a cesarean section, the pelvic floor muscles will become looser. The effect will be more obvious if you choose a natural birth, and it will be more obvious as you get older. If the pelvic floor muscles are loose, it will have a lot of effects on the human body, causing the vagina to relax, which will seriously affect the couple's sexual intercourse. It can also cause stress urinary incontinence. A sneeze may cause urinary incontinence. It can also easily lead to various gynecological diseases. In severe cases, it can cause the fall of organs such as the uterus. Therefore, pelvic floor muscle repair must be carried out after giving birth.

2. When is the best time to start pelvic floor muscle training?

Normally speaking, the sooner the pelvic repair training is done, the better. Before pregnancy, it is best to start appropriate training to avoid muscle relaxation, because pelvic repair training cannot be completed in a day or two. Pelvic floor muscle training can also be performed during pregnancy, which is more conducive to the mother to choose natural childbirth, and pelvic floor muscle exercises during pregnancy can help pregnant women relieve coccyx pain. Pelvic floor muscle repair can be started two days after giving birth, but 42 days to one year after giving birth is the best time to repair the pelvis, and within half a year after giving birth is the golden period for repair.

3. What are the benefits of pelvic floor muscle repair after childbirth?

Pelvic floor muscle repair after childbirth can not only prevent uterine detachment, but also help the body recover after childbirth, increase the mother's chances of getting pregnant again, and improve the quality of sex life of couples.

Some mothers said that pelvic floor muscle repair in hospital outpatient clinics is very expensive. In fact, pelvic floor muscle repair does not necessarily have to be done in the hospital.
