This website is based on an in-person program developed by researchers, medical professionals, and community organizations in Wisconsin.
The program helps women learn about: 

  • How the bladder, bowels, and pelvic floor muscles work together

  • How to do pelvic floor muscle exercises

  • How to adjust fiber and fluid intake to improve symptoms

  • How to have effective conversations with healthcare providers

This website should not take the place of a medical provider.
If information here is different from what you are told by your provider, you should not make changes without talking to your doctor first.
