How does one get pelvic floor dysfunction?
The occurrence of pelvic floor dysfunction is typically multi-factorial and difficult to identify. It can be the result of a traumatic fall or childbirth or from abdominal or pelvic surgery. It can occur due to poor posture, muscle incoordination, disuse atrophy, a chronic holding pattern in the pelvic floor, from a urinary tract or yeast infection or from a skeletal malalignment.
