Episode 299: Let’s Talk With a Pelvic Doc
Manage episode 422335816 series 3316149
In recent years, the pelvic floor is a topic that has received increased attention in the popular media. However, discussions of pelvic health tend to focus mostly on women. Male pelvic health is important for us to talk about, too, so that’s what we’re going to be discussing today. In this show, we’re going to speak with a pelvic doc for the lowdown on why we need to pay attention to male pelvic health. We’re also going to do a deep dive into Kegel exercises for men.
My guest is Dr. Lance Frank, a pelvic health physical therapist who runs Flex PT ATL in Midtown, Atlanta. His practice focuses on providing services to patients managing sexual health and intimacy concerns, pelvic pain, and urinary or bowel dysfunction. He also talks extensively about men’s pelvic health on social media, and you can follow him at @lanceinyourpants.
Some of the topics we cover in this episode include:
- What is a pelvic health physical therapist?
- What’s so important about male pelvic health?
- What are the potential benefits (and risks) of Kegel exercises for men?
- How do you know whether Kegel exercises are right for you?
- How do men need to think differently about their pelvic health?
