The pelvic floor remains one of the most misunderstood aspects of women's health, yet it accompanies us throughout life and is involved in crucial functions such as supporting pelvic organs, controlling sphincters, sexual pleasure, and childbirth.

In this episode, we speak with Sandra Gómez, a physiotherapist specializing in the pelvic floor, sexologist, and communicator, about what the pelvic floor truly is, what symptoms we shouldn't normalize, and why urine leakage, pain during sexual intercourse, a feeling of heaviness, pelvic pain, or discomfort during exercise can be signs that something isn't functioning correctly.

We also discuss hormonal contraceptives, dryness, libido, vestibulodynia, menstrual pain, endometriosis, physical exercise, running, CrossFit, abdominopelvic breathing, body awareness exercises, constipation, alcohol, smoking, abdominal fat, and pelvic floor health.

Furthermore, Sandra explains that the pelvic floor also exists in men and can be related to issues such as chronic pelvic pain or premature ejaculation.

Finally, we debunk some common myths: whether vaginal childbirth is the sole cause of pelvic floor problems, if frequent sexual intercourse damages it, if tampons or sex toys weaken it, if drinking little water helps prevent leaks, or if lower back pain can be related to the pelvic floor.

A very practical episode to understand that what is common is not always normal and that we shouldn't resign ourselves to living with pain, urine leaks, or discomfort that can be resolved.
