Episode The M Word: Menopause and Your Pelvic Floor

0:00 23:08

Menopause is having a moment, with celebrities, books and TV programmes taking on the taboo that has surrounded it for so long. But what does menopause (and perimenopause) mean for those of us with pelvic floor problems? Helen chats to a self-described ‘pelvic health nerd’ - the physiotherapist Michelle Lyons - about what’s going on, why knowledge is power and how best to manage your symptoms:

'Move your body every day, in a way that brings you joy; don't get constipated; and don't put up with not feeling well!'
