In this brief educational segment, Dr. Anne Truong MD explains the anatomy and functional role of the pelvic floor muscles. She describes how these muscles form a supportive sling that holds up the bladder, uterus, and intestines, extending from the coccyx to the pubic bone. The talk highlights the pelvic floor’s connections to the abdominal (stomach) muscles and the diaphragm, emphasizing its integration with core musculature. Dr. Truong also references a typical 20‑minute pelvic floor training session that can generate roughly 9,000 Kegel contractions, illustrating the volume of activity involved in strengthening this region.

So the pelvic floor muscles are the muscles that essentially hold up your bladder, your woman, your uterus, even hold up your intestine. Okay. And it goes across from your coccyx bone all the way to your pubic bone. And it's actually connected to your abdominal muscles, the stomach muscles right here. You can see this on the picture here. Also connected to your diaphragm.
