Pelvic Floor Secrets Every Woman Should Know (Before Pregnancy, During, and After Pregnancy)

In this episode of Prepare for Pregnancy, I sit down with pelvic floor physical therapist Dr. Jackie Roelofs (aka @dr.juicyjackie) to unpack how your pelvic floor impacts fertility, digestion, painful periods, C-section recovery, and overall wellness.

Jackie shares her powerful personal story of navigating endometriosis, chronic pelvic pain, and how pelvic floor therapy transformed her health and career. Together, we explore:

✨ What the pelvic floor actually is (and the 5 key functions every woman should know)
✨ How fascia, digestion, and period pain are connected
✨ Why pelvic floor health matters long before pregnancy
✨ The role of scar tissue after a C-section in future fertility
✨ How the nervous system and pelvic floor work together to support conception
✨ What to expect in a pelvic floor PT appointment
✨ Red flags to look out for when choosing a provider

Whether you’re 16 with painful periods, 26 preparing for conception, or 36 navigating the postpartum world, this conversation will give you tools, hope, and perspective for your reproductive health journey.
