A recent study by Origin and Ipsos found that 8 in 10 women experienced pelvic health symptoms in the past year, with 64% reporting a negative impact (79% among postpartum women). Surprisingly, 96% of these women have not received a diagnosis or treatment. Pelvic floor dysfunction, though common, isn't normal. We advocate for integrating pelvic floor therapy into pre and postnatal care plans to address these issues effectively.
New study by Origin & Ipsos Highlights the Hidden Pelvic Health Crisis Over the years, we've gotten used to people telling us that pelvic floor symptoms like bladder leaks and pelvic pain are "niche” issues that “only” impact postpartum and older women (as if these people count less?). And until now, we’ve lacked detailed and validated data to prove them wrong. That changes today. Conducted in partnership with Ipsos and made possible with a grant from Rise Together Ventures, the 2024 Origin Pelvic Health Study shows that pelvic health issues among women ages 18-59 have reached epidemic levels — and we are not getting the care we need. 🛑 Pelvic health symptoms impacted 8 in 10 women within the past year. 🛑 83% report at least one pelvic health symptom in the past year (75% report two or more) 🛑 The average number of pelvic health symptoms reported is 5 🛑 Millennial women are even more likely to report a host of symptoms than Gen X 🛑 64% say symptoms negatively impact their lives, yet 96% have not received a related health diagnosis If you’re nodding your head, repost to help drive awareness about these issues and advocate for more and better pelvic healthcare — and DM us if you want to collaborate on future research or discuss the data with our clinical team.
