It is estimated that 7 million women in the UK suffer from urinary incontinence, usually during and after pregnancy and childbirth, yet, for many years it has been an under reported and under treated condition.
Following on from the recent welcome announcement that the NHS will be setting up pelvic health clinics, our two expert speakers will discuss the issues around pelvic health, and suggest practical advice on how midwives can support women with pelvic floor issues to ensure better outcomes.
