@vaginacoach is there a point where these won't heal the prolapse? Mine is pretty severe. I had surgery about 15 years ago and had a sling put in and it's failed. I've had nothing but bladder issues ever since . There is significant protrusion. So I'm worried that surgery is the only answer.
Hi Kim.... thank you for posting these helpful exercises. I'm five months out of a hysterectomy/oophorectomy and anterior vaginal repair. The anterior repair was unsuccessful,so I'm contending with cystocele and now vaginal vault dropping. I'm in the waiting list for a vaginal vault and further anterior repair. Any further suggestions you might have for my situation would be greatly appreciated 🙏❣️
Thank you for your help. On the wall exercise, I feel the work in my legs, anterior calves especially. Is there some place I could be feeling it in my pelvic floor or hips? Thanks again.
I have to imagine what’s happening in my body to remember - when I breathe in my lungs fill up which would push my pelvic floor down, when I breathe out my pelvic floor can lift up as the air empties. Good work and good luck
Thank you for this video. I do have two questions. First, what bone are you talking about in the first excercise? I've never heard of a sitz bone. Second, how many reps do you recommend for a 78 year old with urinary incontinence. I also had very successful total hip replacements 8 years ago, with no problems at all. Would you recommend any modifications?
sitz bones are more technically called the ischial tuberosities. If you pull the flesh of your butt cheek to the side you will feel a boney point...that is your sitz bone. I recommend vaginal estrogen, buff muff exercises ( you may need to modify some of the hip opener exercises depending on your mobility
@@vaginacoachDo you do the rolled towel under the other cheek and do the same exercise, again? Or only one side? If only one side, do the other side the next time?
I recommend seeing a pelvic floor physical therapist around 6 weeks post. You can begin exercise once cleared by your physician, typically around 6 weeks.
If you don’t want surgery, you can use a pessary, which is a flexible, circular (usually) silicone object that is easily inserted into the vagina and holds the vaginal wall up. You can google “vaginal pessary” to get more info.

Is the last exercise doable if you have osteoporosis as you're flexing slightly with support? Great instructional video!
work within the guidelines for your condition
Are there exercises for persons who have had knee and hip replacements? I can’t kneel on the floor.
Do what you can. I have a variety of exercises in my buff muff program.
If the vaginal wall is collapsing into the vagina does it require surgery?
no not always
If you don’t want surgery, you can use a pessary, which is a flexible, circular (usually) silicone object that is easily inserted into the vagina and holds the vaginal wall up. You can google “vaginal pessary” to get more info.
What size exercise ball?
I am 5’9
Sadly many of us are unable to do floor exercises! Any that work well ( as in chair)?
yep - I have seated options in my buff muff program www.buffmuff.com
