What Are Some Common Post-Birth Side Effects?

Up to 50% of postpartum women experience weakness in their abdominal and pelvic floor muscles, and around one-third still have diastasis recti at eight weeks after birth. Postnatal symptoms can vary widely from woman to woman, but common issues may include:

  • Pelvic floor weakness

  • Urinary and/or bowel incontinence

  • Pelvic organ prolapse

  • Diastasis recti (abdominal separation)

  • Constipation, often due to iron supplements or fear of straining stitches

  • Postpartum hair loss, triggered by a drop in oestrogen as hormone levels adjust

Why Book a Women’s Health Check-Up?

This check-up supports long-term health by identifying issues early - even before symptoms arise. Hormonal changes, childbirth, posture, and internal imbalances can all affect musculoskeletal and pelvic health. A tailored assessment helps guide your recovery and ongoing well-being.

What’s Included in the Check-Up?

  • Full health and lifestyle review

  • Postural and movement assessment

  • Core and pelvic floor examination

  • Diastasis recti screening

  • External (and, if appropriate, internal) pelvic floor assessment

  • Personalised advice and rehabilitation plan
