We chat with Women's Health Physiotherapist, Issy Downie, about vaginal health after childbirth.
This is an open and candid chat that discusses rates of prolapse, returning to sex or urinary incontinence after giving birth.
The aim of our discussion is to help women feel empowered with knowledge around what's to be expected after birth. We also chat about what is involved with having an assessment by a women's health physiotherapist.
During our conversation we touch on:
- What a women's health physio is and what they do?
- What is a prolapse and how common it is after childbirth
- The assessment process, what an internal examination is and informed consent
- How you can help minimise or prevent a prolapse
- Returning to sex after having a baby
- Why urinary incontinence occurs and what you can do about it
