Why is a pelvic floor checkup important after delivery?

Dr. Sushruta Mokadam highlights that pelvic floor recovery should be part of every mother's six-week postnatal checkup. Pregnancy and childbirth can weaken these muscles, causing urine leakage, pelvic heaviness, pain or bowel control issues. Regular pelvic floor exercises, physiotherapy and timely medical advice can support recovery and help prevent long-term problems.
