In this episode Dr. Allyson Shrikhande chats with me about chronic pelvic pain and pelvic floor dysfunction, and how it can affect (and be affected by) mental health. Dr. Shrikhande is a board certified Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation specialist, and the Chair of the Medical Education Committee for the International Pelvic Pain Society. Motivated by her own experience with chronic pain and pelvic floor dysfunction, she has developed a holistic protocol to treat her patients, and in this episode she gives some great tips and ideas of where to start if you are suffering from pain or a pelvic floor that just isn't the same as it used to be!
