Our favourite Pelvic Health Physio, Emily Elgar, returns to the podcast to chat prolapse, pessaries and perimenopause. Emily shares some basics around pelvic floor anatomy, different types of prolapses, along with diagnosis and treatment.  This conversation also provided space for Eva, one of our co-hosts, to share her own experience with prolapse. Her story weaved its way through everything Emily spoke about, and gave us insight into the deeper impacts of prolapse.  We wrap up with some fantastic info for those embarking on THE MENOPAUSE. Or maybe the perimenopause, or who really knows because there are so many symptoms and aren't we all just stretched thin and stressed out anyway?! Emily shares some great tips to navigate this often confusing transition.   Huge thanks to our sponsors for supporting this episode and series 5 of the podcast Urban Climb and Climbing Anchors Follow Emily on Instagram @thewomankindphysioWatch our chat about pessaries  POP-Q Assessment ToolTaryn Hallam thelowdown.com Balance App for Menopause Clue App for Menstrual Cycle Listen to past podcasts with Emily; #15 All Things Pelvic Floor and Tuning into What you Need and #16 Health behaviours, Recognising What's Important and Tools for Change   Dyurrite/Mount Arapiles Barengi Gadjin Land Council (BGLC) represents Traditional Owners from the Wotjobaluk, Jaadwa, Jadawadjali, Wergaia and Jupagulk peoples.
