The Pelvic Floor Project

The Pelvic Floor Project

Embarrassing symptoms deserve better conversations.

Whether you're dealing with bladder leaks, prolapse, pelvic pain, painful sex, erectile dysfunction, constipation, pregnancy, postpartum recovery, or simply wondering if what you're experiencing is normal—you're not alone.

Hosted by pelvic floor physiotherapist Melissa Dessaulles, this podcast helps you understand how your body works and why symptoms happen. Through conversations with leading researchers, physicians, surgeons, sex therapists, midwives, psychologists, and other experts, we translate the latest evidence into practical information you can actually use.

No myths. No shame. No confusing medical jargon.

Just honest conversations that connect the dots—so you can feel informed, confident, and empowered to make decisions about your health.
