Stronger Pelvic Floor: Kegel Your Way to Success

by Kayla Martin

For women looking to achieve a stronger pelvic floor, pelvic floor exercises, also known as Kegel exercises, are essential before and after giving birth. These exercises help strengthen the muscles that support the pelvic organs, including the bladder, uterus, and rectum. This can help prevent and treat urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and other conditions that can occur during pregnancy and childbirth.

Strengthen your pelvic floor with Kegels

Pelvic floor exercises before pregnancy

Before pregnancy, pelvic floor exercises can help prepare the muscles for the added stress of carrying a baby. During pregnancy, the exercises can help maintain muscle tone and prevent incontinence. After childbirth, pelvic floor exercises can help the muscles recover from the trauma of delivery and prevent long-term problems such as incontinence and prolapse.

During Pregnancy

One of the most common problems that can occur during pregnancy and childbirth is urinary incontinence. This can be caused by the added weight of the baby putting pressure on the bladder, as well as the hormonal changes that occur during pregnancy. Pelvic floor exercises can help strengthen the muscles that support the bladder, reducing the risk of incontinence.

After Pregnancy

Pelvic organ prolapse is another common problem that can occur after childbirth. This occurs when the muscles and ligaments that support the pelvic organs become weakened, allowing the organs to drop down into the vaginal area. Pelvic floor exercises can help prevent this by strengthening the muscles and ligaments that support the pelvic organs.

Better Sex

In addition to preventing and treating these conditions, pelvic floor exercises can also improve sexual function. Strong pelvic floor muscles can lead to stronger orgasms and increased pleasure during sexual activity. WORTH IT.

How to do a Kegel

Pelvic floor exercises are easy to do and can be done in the privacy of your own home. To perform a Kegel exercise, simply squeeze the muscles that you use to stop the flow of urine. Hold the squeeze for a few seconds and then release. Repeat this exercise 10-15 times, working up to 3 sets of 10-15 repetitions per day. It’s important to keep breathing normally while doing Kegel exercises and avoid holding your breath.
