Connecting the Dots: Oestrogen and the Pelvic Floor

Oestrogen directly influences pelvic floor health by maintaining tissue elasticity, hydration, and strength. When levels dip due to stress, poor sleep, or the shift during menopause, the pelvic floor may weaken, leading to dysfunction. Elevated cortisol from adrenal fatigue can exacerbate these issues, creating a cycle of tension and reduced resilience.

Practices like Hypopressives, deep breathing, and mindful movement restore balance, supporting the pelvic floor and overall hormonal health. By addressing stress, sleep, and posture, clients can regain functional strength and confidence.
