What are the benefits of pelvic floor rehabilitation?

Postpartum women usually need pelvic floor repair. There are many methods for pelvic floor repair now, such as the use of some scientific instruments. In addition, it is best to do exercises under the guidance of a professional doctor. You must master the correct pelvic floor muscle training method. After learning the method, you can exercise regularly at home. You must pay attention to perseverance to see good results. So what is the main function of pelvic floor repair?

Is a postpartum pelvic floor examination necessary?

Is it necessary to do a pelvic floor muscle strength test after childbirth? After delivery, doctors will recommend a pelvic floor muscle strength test. Regardless of whether the woman gave birth naturally or had a cesarean section, she should do it after delivery. This will bring many benefits in the future. What are the pelvic floor muscles? The pelvic floor muscles refer to the group of muscles that close the pelvic floor. Some people describe this group of muscles as a "hanging net" that firmly holds up the urethra, bladder, uterus, anterior and posterior walls of the vagina, rectum and other pelvic organs. In this way, each organ can be in its proper position and perform its normal function. What to do if your pelvic floor muscles relax? Once the elasticity of this hanging net is poor, corresponding symptoms will appear, such as incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, etc. If the abdominal pressure increases, urine may flow out involuntarily when laughing, coughing, sneezing, or even walking. Many pregnant women will have this feeling. Some pregnant women leak urine and mistakenly think it is amniotic fluid. Why does the pelvic floor muscles relax? There is a misunderstanding that I must explain to everyone here. No matter whether it is a natural childbirth or a cesarean section, as long as you are pregnant, it will affect the pelvic floor muscles, because the impact on the pelvic floor muscles does not occur all at once during childbirth!

Of course, for first-time mothers who give birth naturally, the pelvic floor muscles will be greatly affected for more than 10 hours, especially for those who have a difficult delivery and need forceps. Most of the babies who cannot be delivered by cesarean section are probably overweight, and most of those who have difficult deliveries and require forceps are also overweight. In the final analysis, it still comes back to the three horses that I often talk about. During pregnancy, remember not to let the fetus grow too big. A baby weighing more than 6 pounds is fine. Even if the fetal heart rate is not good during birth (the cervix is ​​fully dilated), the baby will be born with a little force. If the baby is big, you may use a lot of force and he (she) may not move at all. In that case, you may have to do a cesarean section or forceps. Until then, you'll just have to listen to the doctor.

If the fetus is not big, the labor process will be shortened, and there will be enough strength, the baby may be born smoothly, and the impact on the pelvic floor muscles will be small. Even if there are some effects, they will recover quickly after physical rehabilitation after delivery. So it is an old saying that before delivery, you should be careful not to gain too much weight and the fetus should not be too big (of course, it should not be too small either). This can reduce the decline in pelvic floor muscle strength after delivery. After childbirth, you should actively monitor your pelvic floor muscle strength. If there are any problems, you should undergo physical rehabilitation as soon as possible to improve the function of your pelvic floor.
