🚨 PSA from your friendly neighborhood Pelvic PT 🚨
Leaking when you sneeze?
Just a drip? A trickle? The whole dang underwear? 🩲
Once a week? After you laugh too hard?
👉 Still not normal.
👉 Still not something you have to “just live with.”
And to my fellow healthcare pros — can we please stop calling it “common” like that makes it okay?! 🙃
If your patient says they leak — refer them to Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy.
This is fixable. This is treatable. This is literally our job.
I’m honestly tired of hearing people say, “My doctor said that’s just part of getting older,” or “It’s normal after having kids.”
You wanna p*e your pants forever? No? Cool. Let’s not normalize it.
So yes — laugh at my photo, but if you leak when you laugh, it’s time to see a Pelvic Floor PT. ❤️
