🛑 Condom Week: Let’s talk about safe s*x, not just for protection against STIs, but for pelvic health as well! Condoms are essential in preventing s*xually transmitted infections (STIs) that can affect the pelvic floor, like chlamydia and gonorrhea.

💡 STIs can lead to chronic pelvic pain, scarring, and fertility issues. Protecting yourself and your partner with condoms is key to maintaining both s*xual and pelvic health.

👩‍⚕️ Pelvic floor physical therapy can help you manage any symptoms related to pelvic pain or discomfort from STIs and improve s*xual health. Let’s talk prevention!

Yesterday, 2/4, was World Cancer. A day late but still incredibly important.

🎗️ World Cancer Day: A day to raise awareness and show support for those affected by cancer. Did you know that pelvic cancers, including prostate cancer, cervical cancer, and endometrial cancer, can have significant impacts on the pelvic floor?

💡Pelvic floor dysfunction, including incontinence, pain, and s*xual health challenges, is common during and after cancer treatment. Pelvic floor physical therapy plays a crucial role in recovery, helping to address these symptoms and improve quality of life.

🎗️ January is , a time to shine a light on the importance of prevention, early detection, and education about cervical cancer.

Did you know?

Cervical cancer is primarily caused by persistent infection with high-risk strains of HPV (human papillomavirus).

Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer globally, affecting individuals with a cervix, including cis-women, transgender men, and non-binary people. In 2020, there were over 570,000 new cases and nearly 310,000 deaths.

Early-stage cervical cancer often shows no symptoms, which is why regular screenings (Pap smears & HPV tests) are essential for early detection.

Common symptoms of cervical cancer may include:
Unexplained vaginal bleeding (between periods or after s*x)
Unusual discharge
Pain during s3xual activity
Lower back or pelvic pain

💉 Prevention: The HPV vaccine can protect against the most dangerous strains, and regular screenings can catch abnormalities early, preventing cancer before it starts.
Early detection saves lives. Talk to your doctor about your screening schedule and HPV vaccination options today! 💖
