After giving birth to two children, how to deal with vaginal relaxation

Patient's question:

When I had my first child, it didn't feel as noticeable, but after giving birth to my second child, I realized that the area below has become very loose. What kind of help is needed: What to do about looseness after having two children

Doctor's answer:

It is normal to experience vaginal relaxation again after childbirth. It is recommended that you practice pelvic muscle exercises regularly for better tightening of the vagina, anal sphincter, and pelvic floor muscles. Postpartum, you can do two to three sessions daily, each lasting about fifteen minutes. The specific method is as follows: take a deep breath, contract your anal muscles for ten to fifteen seconds, then exhale deeply and relax your anal muscles. Repeat this process. If the relaxation is severe, you may consider undergoing a vaginal tightening surgery. This procedure repairs damaged and loose muscles and fascia to restore vaginal elasticity and achieve the appropriate tightness.
