Menstrual Cycle Basics

The ups and downs (and hows and whys) of what happens across the monthly cycle! What we feel, why we feel it, how to work WITH it, and why it might not be the worst thing ever.

Meg Ramos, PTA joins the Show Your Work podcast for a broad conversation about pelvic health! We cover basic anatomy and function, who could benefit from pelvic floor PT, how to find a good therapist, what a typical visit looks like, and a few other random tidbits! (There were SO many places where we could have dived deeper, and this episode may become a series depending on the feedback!) Show notes // pelvic PT resources: @strongerwithmeghan @twopeaswellness (pelvic floor friendly lifting, specializing in pregnancy loss) @disruptphysiotherapy (CrossFit specific) @thebarbellmamas (pre and post partum) @dr.mel_pt @krystyna.holland (EXCELLENT for trauma informed/inclusive care) @southernpelvichealth (she specifically offers some great patient facing mini courses for deeper dives) @womeninmotion_wellness (EXCELLENT birth and pregnancy info) @dr.susieg (male/penis focused info) @kidsbowelbladder (pediatric pelvic pt) @physiodetective (great at mythbusting especially for fitness athletes)

The Show Your Work origin story, a.k.a. my first rough attempt at this podcast thing. :)
