#76 | Stop Doing Kegels: What Your Pelvic Floor Is Trying to Tell You with Dr. Trina Winner
About this episode
In this episode, Brigid Tebaldi discusses pelvic floor health with Dr. Trina Winner, addressing common misconceptions and the impact of postpartum recovery.
Eight months postpartum and you cannot sit through dinner without your tailbone screaming. Your OB shrugged when you asked about pelvic floor therapy and every wellness account on your feed is telling you to cold plunge, fast until noon, and do more kegels. In this episode I sit down with Dr. Trina Winner, a pelvic physical therapist, doula, functional nutrition coach, and lactation counselor, to talk about what your pelvic floor is actually trying to tell you. We get into why symptoms often show up months after birth instead of right away, why an overactive pelvic floor gets misdiagnosed as a weak one, how trauma and stress live in this part of your body, and why so much of the biohacking world was never built for a woman in her fertile years in the first place.
