The Effects of Osteoporosis on the Pelvic Floor

May is Osteoporosis Awareness Month. It’s estimated that around 10 million Americans suffer from osteoporosis. While osteoporosis is most often associated with broken bones, did you know that this condition also has a negative impact on pelvic health?

In this week’s video we cover:

✅ The relationship between osteoporosis and stress urinary incontinence (SUI)

✅ What to assess for in your bimanual exams of patients with osteoporosis

✅ The best home exercises for these patients
