Many women only realize how important a healthy pelvic floor is for their well-being after giving birth. Often, even after postpartum recovery, they experience wet underwear when sneezing or lifting, and constantly feel like they have a tennis ball in their vagina. The distress is significant, yet there is still too little discussion about the pelvic floor, and many women feel dismissed by their gynecologists. Other mothers may not have obvious complaints after giving birth, but then encounter problems years later as they approach menopause.

Katharina Charissé and Rieke Hermann finally speak candidly about the pelvic floor, as it is of invaluable importance for women's health. Even during pregnancy, there is much that can be done for a relaxed and well-trained pelvic floor, which also optimally prepares one for childbirth. For persistent pelvic floor issues after birth, the right yoga exercises can help. The authors also inform about what can be done in cases of severe pelvic floor damage. They assist women in feeling comfortable in their bodies again.
