Wendy interviews her friend and colleague Pam, who suffered a severe uterine prolapse in October 2018 while at a spin class. Pam shares her story of diagnosis, treatment, and recovery in the hope it might help other women who are struggling with prolapse and feeling alone and unsupported. Wendy and Pam discuss the piecemeal nature of women’s health care, the importance of candid conversations around women’s reproductive health and the role a good pelvic floor therapist can play when it comes to thriving in midlife. If you don’t know what a uterine prolapse, pessary, or vaginal vault suspension are, listen to this episode. To improve women’s pelvic floor wellness, we need to start talking about it more!
