Anatomical and functional characteristics of the pelvic floor in women of various age groups
Prolapse and dysfunction of pelvic organs in women represent a multifactorial pathology. The study results underscore the importance of comprehensive assessment of the pelvic floor, which includes both anatomical and functional parameters. This approach aids in identifying early signs of pathology, enabling a more accurate evaluation of the pelvic floor, its dynamic changes associated with aging, and the influence of predisposing factors.
This study revealed that the onset of anatomical and functional changes in most women occurs long before menopause. These findings can be used to develop individualized preventive and therapeutic programs aimed at strengthening the pelvic floor muscles, minimizing the effects of obstetric trauma, and enhancing the overall quality of life of patients.
