The pelvic floor muscles support the bladder, uterus, and bowel. When these muscles are weakened or not working well, symptoms such as urinary leakage, pelvic heaviness, or difficulty controlling the bladder and bowel may appear. These issues are common — especially after pregnancy, childbirth, or with age — but they are not something you have to live with. At DRV Health, we provide supportive, confidential care to assess and strengthen your pelvic floor.
Pelvic floor dysfunction occurs when the muscles are too weak, too tight, or not coordinated properly. This can cause:
Urinary incontinence – leakage when coughing, sneezing, laughing, exercising, or a sudden strong urge to urinate (stress or urge incontinence).
Pelvic floor weakness – a feeling of heaviness, dragging, or “something falling down” in the vagina.
Difficulty with bowel control – constipation, straining, or accidental leakage of wind or stool.
Pelvic pain – aching, pressure, or pain during intercourse.
During your consultation, our GPs will:
Take a detailed medical and symptom history
Perform an examination (if appropriate) to assess muscle tone and control
Identify possible contributing factors (hormones, medications, lifestyle)
Offer referrals to women’s health physiotherapists or urogynaecologists if specialist input is needed
We believe in holistic, personalised care. Depending on your needs, treatment may include
Pelvic floor dysfunction is common, but it doesn’t have to limit your quality of life. With the right assessment and treatment, most women see significant improvement. At DRV Health, we provide discreet, respectful, and effective care, helping you regain confidence and control.
