IMPACTS OF HORMONES ON PREGNANCY & PELVIC FLOOR SYMPTOMS Are we talking complete rubbish to our patients? It is basic health professional knowledge that reproductive hormones such as oestrogen reduce with menopause. However, physiotherapists often make lengthy speeches to their patients on the impacts these changes in hormones will have on their urinary and prolapse symptoms. In addition, physiotherapists often comment on the impacts of relaxin and breastfeeding on pregnancy related pelvic girdle pain, postnatal incontinence and prolapse. Is this information actually true? This lecture will discuss the common myths and facts surrounding the impact of female reproductive hormones on on incontinence, prolapse and pregnancy related back pain. |

NOCTURIA AND DAYTIME URINARY FREQUENCY More than a lower urinary tract disorder? Nocturia and urinary frequency and common symptoms associated with overactive bladder. As a result, these frustrating symptoms are often viewed through a lower urinary tract / pelvic floor lens. Unfortunately, these conditions can also be a sign of more sinister conditions including obstructive sleep apnea (for nocturia), cardiac issues, kidney issues etc. This presentation will explain the underlying pathophysiology behind why these more sinister conditions can present as nocturia +/- daytime urinary frequency, and how the physiotherapist can screen for when futher investigations are required. |
