10 Treatments for Menopause

8. Pelvic floor exercises

Strengthening your pelvic floor can benefit menopausal women a great deal. In menopause, the decline in circulating estrogen puts women at risk of urogynaecological dysfunction. Incontinence, sexual dysfunction and discomfort, and pelvic organ prolapse can be experienced. Strengthening the pelvic floor by performing Kegels and other internal floor exercises help you to enhance the muscles of the pelvic floor which in turn increases bladder control, tone the inner muscles to support your organs and even benefit the libido. Kegel exercises are discreet, and it only takes a few minutes per day to improve the state of your inner workings.
