## Resource

Leaking when you laugh. Waking up three times a night to pee. Hip pain that won't quit no matter what you try. Sound familiar? Pelvic health specialist Erin Degagne is back, and she's here to tell you what most women aren't being told: these things are fixable and you've probably been given the wrong advice. Gina Livy and Erin dig into why the pelvic floor is almost always tight, not weak; what menopause is doing to your bladder and tissue; how to stop the urgency spiral that makes you sprint for every bathroom and the real role of vaginal estrogen, HRT and sex in pelvic health. This may make you say, "Why did no one tell me sooner?"
