Patient's question:
On November 25, 2018, I got pregnant with a child. Is it necessary for everyone to do pelvic floor muscle repair after conception? During the 42-day check-up, the doctor didn't say anything, and I also don't have any incontinence issues.Doctor's answer:
Postpartum pelvic floor muscle examination and testing are used to assess the condition of a woman's pelvic floor muscles after childbirth, helping to prevent and promptly treat pelvic floor disorders. A medical history inquiry, routine examination, and pelvic floor muscle function testing are conducted six weeks postpartum. The perineal examination primarily checks for any perineal wounds, the healing status of the wounds, the elasticity of the perineal body, whether the vaginal opening can close, the downward mobility of the perineal plane during maximum voluntary contraction, and its relationship with the ischial tuberosity plane. If you do not experience urine leakage, you do not need to undergo pelvic floor muscle strength repair.
