Pelvic Floor Dysfunction (PFD) is a highly personal topic, so it is rarely discussed, even among family and friends. In fact, very few of my patients, even those who are suffering with symptoms of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction (PFD) when they begin physical therapy, understand what it is.  Even fewer know about the causes and treatment of PFD.
