Description: Episode 60 of The Health Exchange Podcast dives into the overlooked and often misunderstood world of women’s pelvic health with guest Dr. Maria Uloko, a urologist and pelvic health expert. Dr. Rutland and Dr. Uloko explore why conditions like pelvic floor dysfunction, urinary incontinence, recurrent UTIs, and hormonally mediated vestibular pain are frequently misdiagnosed or underrecognized. They discuss how hormonal changes, inflammation, and pelvic muscle health intersect to affect comfort, urinary function, and overall well-being. The conversation also examines the cultural and educational gaps that have historically neglected female health, while highlighting practical interventions—from hormone therapies to pelvic floor therapy—that can restore function and quality of life. This episode emphasizes the importance of listening to patients, validating their pain, and empowering them with knowledge and options for care.Follow Our Host:instagram.com/drjrutlandProduced by Born Ready Films:instagram.com/bornreadyfilms
