[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Since most pelvic floor damage occurs during pregnancy itself, I guess women should just stop having babies altogether.[/quote]

Citation for that unsubstantiated generalization?[/quote]

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/29332252/

Changes and damage occur during pregnancy. Changes can be accentuated following vaginal birth, but generally heal and return to normal within the first year PP. C-section was not protective of these changes/damage. [/quote]

But see https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/30561480/?i=2&from=/29332252/related, linked to on the right of the study you cite.[/quote]

You can pick and choose studies all day long that say what you want them to say. I’m not sure what you’re advocating for - c-sections for all, and enjoy seeing material morbidity rates skyrocket? What is your agenda?

The bottom line is that most women come through childbirth just fine, with no lasting damage or effect. Several of the linked studies show an 8-13 percent rate of puborectalis muscle injury. Our bodies actually are able to do this.[/quote]
