Do you wonder if your symptoms may be related to your pelvic floor?
INSTRUCTIONS: Check all that apply.
I sometimes have pelvic pain (in genitals, perineum, pubic or bladder area, or pain with urination) that exceeds a ‘3’ on a 1-10 pain scale, with 10 being the worst pain imaginable
I can remember falling onto my tailbone, lower back, or buttocks (even in childhood)
I sometimes experience one or more of the following urinary symptoms:
Accidental loss of urine
Feeling unable to completely empty my bladder
Having to void within a few minutes of a previous void
Pain or burning with urination
Difficulty starting or frequent stopping/starting of urine stream
I often or occasionally have to get up to urinate two or more times at night
I sometimes have a feeling of increased pelvic pressure or the sensation of my pelvic organs slipping down or falling out
I have a history of pain in my low back, hip, groin, or tailbone or have had sciatica
I sometimes experience one or more of the following bowel symptoms:
Loss of bowel control
Feeling unable to completely empty my bowels
Straining or pain with a bowel movement
Difficulty initiating a bowel movement
I sometimes experience pain or discomfort with sexual activity or intercourse
Sexual activity increases one or more of my other symptoms
Prolonged sitting increases my symptoms
IF YOU CHECKED 3 OR MORE CIRCLES, PELVIC FLOOR DYSFUNCTION IS LIKELY. YOU MAY BENEFIT FROM AN ASSESSMENT FROM A PELVIC FLOOR REHABILITATION (PT/OT) PROVIDER.
