Bladder Control: A Woman’s Guide to Pelvic Floor Health (Part 1)
When you gotta go, you gotta go! But what happens when you just can’t seem to control your bladder urges like you used to? Or you leak a little–or a lot? Dr. Jocelyn Fitzgerald, a urogynecologist and pelvic reconstructive surgeon at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and host Dr. Mitzi Krockover, candidly addresses the frequent issues many women experience involving the pelvic floor and pelvic floor problems that may cause incontinence. Women may not always feel comfortable discussing these frustrating problems, but understanding why this happens and your options can help you feel more empowered in your health care decisions. We invite you to listen to part one of the conversation with Dr. Fitzgerald, where she goes into more depth about the pelvic floor, pelvic physical therapy, and incontinence.
