Anyone Try Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy?

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Hawley, PA

I went to gynecologist today for follow up and once again had very bad anxiety and discomfort during the exam. They only looked on outside vulva area since I cannot do a internal exam with speculum due to the pain I expereince. She said there was irritation and took a swab and said I may hage muscle spasms and brought up pelvic floor physical therapy. Has anyone ever tried that and did it end up helping you?

Physical therapy was a game changer for me with stage 4. It did not sound appealing at all in theory but I'm so glad I tried it as it really knocked down my near constant pain and cramps. I was even having trouble having a BM due to such tightness. Doing stretches and exercises at home I've been able to maintain. Highly recommend it if you can try it.
