158. Pelvic Floor, Bowel Health and Prolapse: What Every Woman Needs to Hear But Nobody Talks About

158. Pelvic Floor, Bowel Health and Prolapse: What Every Woman Needs to Hear But Nobody Talks About

Author: Leanne Ward June 28, 2026 Duration: 1:02:12
Pelvic health physiotherapist and PelviPatient app founder Amelia Godfrey joins Leanne for the conversation most women need but nobody is having: what healthy bowel habits actually look like, why straining causes long-term pelvic floor damage, whether squatty potties work, what prolapse really is and the tools available beyond pelvic floor exercises, the honest truth about laxatives, government-funded pelvic pain and endometriosis clinics most Australians have never heard of, and how menopause affects pelvic floor tissue in ways HRT alone cannot address.
