Pelvic Floor Disorders

Pelvic floor disorders are a range of health conditions caused by the weakening of pelvic muscles that support your lower organs including the bowel, bladder, uterus and vagina.

Your Michigan Answer for Pelvic Floor Disorders

Pelvic floor disorders can be difficult to live with, making activities like exercising, spending time with friends, or even relaxing more challenging. Life doesn’t have to be so difficult. Get the advanced, compassionate care you need to regain control and confidence.

Pelvic floor disorders happen when weak or damaged muscles and tissues can’t support your organs like they should. These conditions are common and can cause pain, incontinence or serious complications. Childbirth, heavy lifting, chronic illnesses and previous pelvic surgery can all cause these conditions.
