Muscle test of the perineum from 3. mese post parto!
Perineum test
it is necessary to establish the functional state of the pelvic floor:
- check the muscle state of the pelvic floor
- determines whether the woman needs to strengthen her muscles
- helps to avoid current or future dysfunctions of voiding problems such as stress / urgency urinary incontinence
During natural childbirth, the pelvic floor muscles are dilated, sometimes torn and / or incised (episiotomia) to help the fetus to come out. As a result they are weak.
Problems that can arise even after months of giving birth are:
- l’incontinenza urinaria da stress (la donna perde delle gocce di urina involontariamente)
- l’incontinenza urinaria d’urgenza (la donna fa fatica di arrivare in bagno senza gocce di perdita)
- discomfort during the relationship
postpartum incontinence is a very common disorder in new mothers, typical is those who gave birth with a natural birth or if the newborn was particularly large. Dopo il parto i muscoli del pavimento pelvico sono ovviamente meno tonici di prima, hanno subito uno stiramento durante il parto facendo si che la distanza tra ano e vulva aumenti con conseguente perdita di tonicità e di contrattilità, hence the incontinence or the danger of incontinence in the future.
Therapy
- Sensitization to activate the pelvic floor muscles (coordination)
- Muscle strengthening of the pelvic floor through Kegel exercises and / or a computerized Biofeedback program
- Possibly. muscle strengthening through a targeted electrostimulation program (only with insufficiency of muscle strength)
