More women than is imaginable have pelvic floor issues, but no one is talking about it. It’s World Continence Week, so we want to change that! We asked 2,000 women about their pelvic floors and here are the results.

Almost half of women report symptoms of a weak pelvic floor such as weeing involuntarily when they cough, laugh or sneeze.

Despite how common this issue is, 57% of women never tell anyone about it...

40% of women reveal they’d feel embarrassed to discuss it with their doctor, and two-thirds admit they wouldn’t feel comfortable discussing it with their closest friends or family.

As of today, 72%, the vast majority, will never seek treatment!

So what can we do about it?

We want to tackle the silence! We want to help people have conversations around pelvic floor health and seek treatment that could help them!

Did you know one of the major roles of the pelvic floor is to stabilise the core and lower back? I did not ??‍♀️! For a whole year may I add. I'd heard about your pelvic floor muscles weakening after giving birth but I had never heard of the association with bad back - and boy did I suffer ? I...
