I'm so glad I got to hop on for this 😀 Thanks for answering my question, and I learned a lot from the other questions too! Have an awesome day!
Hi I just had prolapse surgery a week before my 43rd birthday I’ve been looking for a group like this just to learn more I’m excited to run across this.
I'm so glad you found this video! If you're interested, I have lots of help for you on my RUclips channel and in my Lift program.
@@vibrantpelvichealth thank you 😄
Hi! I watch your routine for ‘pelvic adhesions’ and try to do the routine daily.
I have had pelvic pain for 15 years! Doing pilates and taking 5-6 drops of iodine daily seems to be helping a lot! Endo/Cysts/fibroids (I have been diagnosed with), and your routine for adhesions and adding liquid iodine to my daily morning routine, has literally changed my life. I have not been able to work much the last 15 years, I feel confident I might be able to work more. Being in pain, not sleeping, being a Mom has wiped me out. But the fact my pain is at a level 1-2 most days, where as it was at a level 5 or more, most days, worse was like a 9 and would send me to the E.R. Yay for improvement!
So- it made sense I was deficient in iodine, I don’t eat any foods (Oysters) that are rich in iodine. Iodine, supports the thyroid and helps metabolize female hormones properly (estrogen).
That's WONDERFUL that your pain has decreased! I'm so glad you're using my pelvic adhesions video. Thanks for sharing what you've discovered for yourself about iodine and hormones!
@@vibrantpelvichealth Can I get suggestions as to which brand of liquid iodine would be helpful - so many choices & from all I be heard about different supplements not being what they claim to be, so it's a big help in deciding what MAY work out for me.
One more question... Can the iodine still be any help with hormones if I'm post menopausal?
@@lynne3989 Hi. I live in Phoenix, Arizona. I got my liquid iodine from a grocery store called, Sprouts Farmers Market.
The bottle is glass, and contains liquid iodine as a dietary supplement, and comes with a dropper (as the lid). I drop 5-6 drops on my tongue every morning. One drop did nothing to help my pelvic pain. I tried one drop daily for a month, and no help. Then I decided to try 5-6 drops daily and the difference is mind blowing. I am 5’4” and 130 pounds. If you are a lot bigger than that, maybe you will need a bit more drops, you will have to experiment.
The back label reads, iodine 150 mcg, (as Potassium Iodide).
The label suggests one drop a day, but like I said, that did nothing. I have been doing 5-6 drops a day with no side effects. The effect it had was only positive. I am literally so much better, like almost no pain/discomfort, compared to some days it felt like cement in my pelvis, and like someone stuck something in my right lower side and was twisting it. That’s how much pain/discomfort. I was rubbing my right side and lower back like constantly. Hope iodine helps you. Pilates is definitely helpful too.
@@lynne3989 Yes….
Hi doctor Bri, greetings from Bali, Indonesia ❤
Sending you a big hug and a lot of gratitude !
You are such an inspiration to me ❤
I've been exercising for 9 years and I started 2 years ago pelvic exercise and I'm a guy that weird can guys do them it doesn't hurt me feel like my pelvic is stronger now I feel a lot healthier I enjoy this RUclips video sharing this information thank you very much you have a blessed day from Terry
I'm so glad you've been working on your pelvic health, Terry! It's so important for EVERYONE, men and women. Happy to hear my info is helping you!
I truly appreciate all of your hard work ❤
I love your smile and voice and feminine energy.
Thanks!
Thank you for all your enthusiasm and encouragement! 💜Loved this Q&A session and wish I could have been live with you. I am 57 with a considerable prolapse. I have been doing your workouts for about 3 months and really enjoy your teaching techniques. I have been back and forth with going with the lift program, but honestly I am leaning towards going for it and hoping it helps as I am not wanting to go in surgery direction.
We'd love to have you join the Lift program! The FemSquad community is super supportive, and it's a beautiful choice if you hope to avoid surgery *OR* use it as a "pre-hab" to help prepare you for the best possible surgical outcomes.
🌹Thank you Bri🙏 You are a wealth of knowledge. it is a healing to have found you 😇 sorry I missed this live Q&A because of time differences in Australia🇦🇺 hopefully you will do more along the way. I am currently half way through a 7 day free kickstart in Overcome! Loving it❤️big releases already😭can’t wait to keep going🌟
Oh YAY! I'm so glad to hear that you're loving the Overcome kickstart! The release work is so, so powerful... And heck, maybe one day I'll see you in Australia, it's been on my "bucket list" for years. The time zone difference between where I am (in the western US) and Australia is a beast!
CUTIE!! You and Jo have similar personalities in ways. Looking at your hair is one!! 🤣 Love you both!!
I'm a menopausal woman suffering from a rectocle. I have followed your Lift program. Also have had sessions with a pelvic floor PT here in my town.
I also have an SI injury, which has caused a lot of gluteal weakness. And was told that this injury may have aided in my pelvic floor injury. I also had a cesarean section with my last chiId(16 years ago). I was released from therapy about 6weeks ago. I don't feel the rectocle pressure but pressure that feels like air /gas trapped in the vagina. I was wondering if vagina estrogen would help firm up or help with these issues. Thank you and your program has given me a lot of relief!
Hi there! Yes, the SI injury (and even your history of C-section) may have contributed to your pelvic floor dysfunction. It's all connected, and anything that impacts the abs, glutes, etc. has the potential to impact pelvic floor function as well. That's why Lift is a well-rounded program that addresses your entire hip, core, and pelvic floor area -- so I'm really glad that you've been through Lift and can return to the exercises and lifestyle tips anytime! Re: your question, YES vaginal estrogen could definitely help firm up the tissues in your vulvar and vaginal regions. Talk to your doctor about it! It tends to be safe, well-tolerated, and very effective for women in perimenopause and menopause.
I wish I was on for this!
Dr. Bri often does live sessions for her course subscribers :) ~Vibrant Support
Good stuff I’m a male! We need more q&a like this but for men too thanks!
Good call, maybe my next Q&A will be for men! Thanks for watching and being here with me on my channel.
Thank you 😊, so much 💖, i am 60yrs old post menopausal..had a prolapse for over a year now ,2 months ago I've had a pressure also on my bladder ,been to docs ..they gave me a pessary ring .but unfortunately it slipped down ,I've got another appointment in a week's time. Just wondering if one of your programmes would help please?and which one ?...it's been quite uncomfortable feeling like a bladder pressure...then struggling to pee !...😢 ..I've cut out sugar and carbonated drinks mainly drinking water ...also I've used a bellicon rebounder over the years, but alittle scared to continue..is it safe ?thank you for your channel and spending time to help us ...wish they're was more education for teenage girls about pelvic health..ive been doing a few of your exercises on RUclips..very much appreciated ❤
I'm so glad you're going to get re-fitted for a pessary; if it makes you feel better, it often takes multiple attempts for people to find the right style, size, and fit for their pessary. You're not alone! When you find the right fit, it can be a game-changer. Re: my programs, I recommend my Lift program AND reading my prolapse guide, which contains loads of information about prolapse, what contributes to it, and what you can do to help. bit.ly/prolapseguide
@@vibrantpelvichealth Thank you so much for replying, very much appreciated 😊, The doctor did say it would be trial and error to get the right one..fingers crossed I'll get sorted soon. I've been doing some of your exercises, but I'll definitely be checking out more 🌺🌻thank you again, x
At what Brie ought I go to ask for a pessary to hold up my pelvic produdent
What if there’s no emotional trauma, but an extremely painful GYN procedure. Everyone keeps saying take meds because I’m stuck in ForF (Central Sensitization). I do every coping exercise possible and force myself to walk. This has been 24/7 for 8 months. Ugh. And SI joint pain complicates it. Treatment is completely opposite. 😤
In my humble opinion, an excruciating GYN procedure *is* emotional trauma! Central sensitization responds well to a slow + gentle holistic approach with lots of patience and self-compassion. Consider working with a somatic therapist or holistically trained physical therapist **along with** my free 10-day mind-body-pelvic health BootCamp: briannegrogan.com/challenge
For the Academy once you join, do you receive an email with the course syllabus does indicating everything that we’re gonna learn from the Academy that’s important to me to have as a receipt of my payment and what I should expect with the class thanks
I'm so sorry I missed the live! I have a history with endometriosis, had laparoscopy 25 years ago and now, post menopausal having the scar tissue issues with my bowel symptoms again. Been struggling with it for 3 years now. What is your best recommendation for addressing the scar tissue? Do I need another laparoscopy? Is there medication
Consider this video I made with exercises for scar tissue adhesions: ruclips.net/video/qdWizScF59g/видео.html
I’m interested in trying your Overcome program and noticed your first month begins each day with relaxing movement. Mornings are typically the only time I’m able to dedicate energy to working out (strength training). Is your program something I can do after my workouts? Or, in the evenings after work?
Great question! Yes, the focus of Overcome is relaxation of ALL the core and pelvic muscles during the first month. I recommend doing the Overcome routines in the morning to start your day in a relaxed, safe, peaceful state. However, I recognize that everyone's schedules are VERY different and some people do the program at other times of the day -- midday, evening before bed, etc. Re: your question about doing it in the morning after you workout, YES, that's absolutely possible. In fact, it would be excellent for you to build in 20-30 minutes after your strength training workouts to reset, rebalance, and release your hard-working pelvic muscles. I'd also encourage you to choose a few of your favorite stretches from the Overcome routines and take 1-2 rest breaks DURING your weight workout as well... That would help prevent over-activation of your core and pelvic floor during your workout and may ultimately contribute to better results from your Overcome program.
👋hi,
I am 69! I do not want any surgery for prolapse. Tried some exercises not sure I am doing them correctly because I still have problems. I use to do beach body when I noticed this prolapse starting.
Check out my prolapse guide, LOTS of great info in here: bit.ly/prolapseguide
I was wondering if you could provide information on fibroids? Are there any natural/holistic recommendations to address this? Stop growth via nutrition? I'm 63, what recommendation can you provide in order, not to have prolapse and to just age as gracefully as possible and take care of oneself. Thank you!
Consider reading this book: Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom: Creating Physical and Emotional Health and Healing (Newly Updated and Revised 5th Edition) by Christiane Northrup M.D. ...It's full of fascinating information, and she talks extensively about natural/holistic recommendations for fibroids. It's a dense read, but it's great! In addition, listen to my pelvic floor affirmations OR my quick pelvic health meditation daily. Affirmations - ruclips.net/video/bd1QvIVJG08/видео.htmlsi=SlNsiYrG-nKz42sg Meditation - ruclips.net/video/HDMbtVzH0C0/видео.htmlsi=AiE5qxZfRzoVKp_3
How does a person know what specific therapy/treatment is needed for them? I'm starting Pelvic Floor Therapy with PT next week and I have no previous experience with this modality. I am menopausal and have bladder issues: urinary stress incontinence, incomplete empying, nocturia. I also have a total loss of libido, zero arousal and feel a complete loss of strength in my pelvis. I am American but live in The Netherlands. I just started with your videos and Lift program for the last 3-4 days....feeling hopeful : ). Thank you.
I'm so glad you got started with the lift program and that you're starting pelvic floor therapy next week! You're on the right track and you're doing to learn SO MUCH about your body. Your session with your PT will give you a lot of great information; be prepared for an internal pelvic exam that may help you understand more about your pelvic floor muscle tone, level of strength, coordination, areas of pain/tenderness, etc. In the meantime, I encourage you to spend EXTRA TIME on week one of the Lift program. Focus on the week one exercises for now, for at least two weeks, before moving forward with the program. This is going to help you connect with your pelvic muscles and your breathing, and help you release/relax your core muscles, which is an important first step for anyone. If you're feeling bored with the week one exercises, spend time exploring all the additional content in the Lift program -- particularly the videos in the "bonus content" section and the videos/info in the mind-body section. Then, after you've really mastered week one, you can move forward with the program at your own pace. Take it slow, you have lifetime access. I'm excited for you!
Im so soeeu i missed this. I have so many problems with rectocele i can't go to the toilet properly even though I'm doing all i can health wise. They tell me im stage one. I don't know what to do from here
I recommend this video (specifically for rectocele): ruclips.net/video/gEVZ-ZJMjiI/видео.html and reading my in-depth prolapse guide, which is helpful for all types of prolapse including rectocele: bit.ly/prolapseguide
I have a vaginal stage 3 prolapse and was told a pessary will help,but really don't think I am ready for that
It's okay to explore other options first - discuss your concerns with your doctor and consider pelvic floor physical therapy as a starting point. ~ Vibrant Support
👍
Are these exercises good for nerve damage due to back surgery?
This is a Q&A with minimal conversation about specific exercises... If you have nerve damage, I recommend talking to a pelvic floor physical therapist for one-on-one advice. Best wishes!
Just standing doing dishes causes pain in pelvic area
As I mentioned, the prolapse guide is for you - bit.ly/prolapseguide and pay special attention to the section on "hips up time"
Hi , I have a prolapse and bladder leakage, lately it has gotten worse lately and I don't know what to do anymore
Try this! bit.ly/liftforfree
My prolapse was graded a prolapse 2 and not a candidate for surgery why is it that sometimes I feel my prolapse pressure on some days and other days I don't feel it?
Yes, it's very typical for sensation to change -- and even grade of prolapse to change -- from day to day. This can be based on many different factors, including: Where you are in your menstrual cycle, how smoothly (or not) your digestion is running, whether you're particularly bloated or constipated, what types of activities you've been doing, your stress levels, etc. I recommend reading my prolapse guide, which talks about many of these factors: bit.ly/prolapseguide
Hi Dr Bri! I really wanted to join this because I do have some questions. I couldn’t join because I’m currently 9 weeks pregnant with my first and I’ve been so insanely sick that it’s been pretty debilitating. I got some medicine from the dr that has finally given me relief and I feel human again.😊 Anyway for about the last month I haven’t been doing dedicated pelvic floor everyday. Which is a first since almost a year. I’m feeling my pelvic floor weakening and I’m starting to stress especially since I’m pregnant and I have recovered from a previous back injury (stress fracture in my vertabrae) I can almost feel my pelvis changing to prepare for baby to grow? Even though I don’t have a bump yet. But things are definitely starting to feel different down there. My question is, now that my nausea has subsided enough for me to function, which of your videos would you recommend I start with to start building back my strength asap!? (I’m starting to feel back pain again for the first time in months and I’m stressing😅) thank you so much for all that you do!! I absolutely love your channel!❤️
Congratulations on your pregnancy! It's normal to feel pelvic changes early on. Start with our prenatal-specific videos, focusing on gentle pelvic floor awareness and breathing exercises. Include some core stabilization for back support. Always listen to your body and check with your healthcare provider before starting new exercises. Take it slow and be kind to yourself - you're doing great! ~ Vibrant Support
@@vibrantpelvichealth thank you so much!! Okay will do. I’m definitely going to prioritize my pelvic floor from now til the end of my pregnancy!

Yay! Enjoy!
Where are you located?
Oregon, USA
Can urogynecologist cause the prolapse be worse? Never felt pain or problems as worse as after docs examination. Turned out the doctor is also a gender change surgeon. Pushing for surgery?
We are so sorry to hear that. If you're uncomfortable with your doctor's approach or experiencing new pain after an exam, it's okay to seek a second opinion and ask for clear explanations about all treatment options. ~ Vibrant Support
🔥🌿👍👍🏾
I need help. I’m 20 and have always been a very active person. Over the last few years I’ve dealt with a lot of stress and anxiety, I’m now having these anal clench/spasm every time I have to poop or even pass gas. Whenever I get the urge right before it comes out it clenches up same thing when passing gas. I stretch, masssge, and exercise but nothing is seeming to help. Life sucks
I'm sorry you're struggling - pelvic floor dysfunction can be challenging, but working with a pelvic floor physical therapist could provide targeted relief and strategies to manage your symptoms. In the meantime, check this link bit.ly/femtension ~ Vibrant Support
