Join us for an enlightening episode with Sarah Boyles, a urogynecologist, as we delve into the often overlooked topic of pelvic floor health post-delivery. While the joy of childbirth is celebrated, many women face concerns about delivery, including pain, labor duration, and birth plans. However, the pelvic floor—crucial for long-term health—is frequently neglected. Sarah sheds light on the prevalence of undiagnosed levator ani muscle tears, their long-term impacts, and the critical need for improved diagnostic and treatment practices. Sarah Boyles is a urogynecologist. She discusses the KevinMD article, "The overlooked impact of childbirth: hidden pelvic floor damage." Our presenting sponsor is Nuance, a Microsoft company. Together, Microsoft and Nuance are leveraging their rich digital technology and advanced AI capabilities to tackle some of health care's biggest challenges.
