Has anyone had success with pelvic PT? I’ve been doing it weekly for about 1.5-2 months and honestly haven’t noticed much improvement or change. Not sure if I need to give it more time?

One side note, i did pelvic pt for 3 months and had no improvement and then found out i also had adenomyosis and that was causing the constant pain that caused my pelvic floor muscles to become hypertonic. I just had a hysterectomy in feb so im going to try pt again and see if the results are better this time around

I take a muscle relaxer and anti inflammatory aside of my PF therapy. There’s also anesthesia target therapy.

I had success with PFPT after excision
It took me three years and ten different therapists, but I finally started feeling some relief. I had to have my endo removed before it helped at all, and made some progress with my old PTs. Then I found one that focused on the abdomen as well, and in two months I felt like a new person!
@Belugabear I did get endo excision first! Honestly I mostly have lots of GI symptoms and then my pelvic floor spasms and tightens.

@Snoopy92 yeah GI issues make it so much harder! I’m still getting those straightened out, but PT helped a little! But really what made the biggest difference was seeing a GI and figuring out what was going on there. But PT helped a lot once I found the right one!!!
Improvement after about 3 months you can do it
@gravitypulledem ty!
I did it for several months and had some improvement, but not a ton, and it's hard for me to keep doing the stretches and exercises. I'm supposed to just keep doing them forever basically. It's not the miracle I was hoping for, but it helped some.
@RainbowNarwhal thx for sharing!
Going through the same exact thing right now. I’ve heard it can take 6 months. Going to stick it out and see what happens
@Coffeeluv thx for sharing!
