SUI & Athletes - Mythbusting! Episode 102 with Dr Jenny LaCross & Dr Laurel Proulx
Sun Feb 01 2026
Hello & Welcome to the Podcast!
Today's episode is brought to you by my online course 'The Menstrual Detective' which also includes 'Pelvic Health for the Young Female Athlete'
This could be my favourite episode of 2026 (and yes, I know it's very early in the year to call it - but this chat is THAT GOOD!)
Today I'm delighted to chat with Dr Jenny LaCross and Dr Laurel Proulx about their super paper that appeared in the Autumn issue of the POGP, called 'Exploring the connection between the hip and pelvic floor in women with exercise-induced urinary incontinence: integrating clinical hypotheses with current evidence'
In this episode, we explore:
the relationship between the hip and the pelvic floor (what is actually happening - this may surprise you...)exercise induced incontinence, especially in nulliparous athletesthe other variables we have to consider, including REDs and Hypermobilitythe Pudendal nerve and its role in SUI
and much much more!! These researchers are creating conversations that are literally changing how we think about pelvic health - I can't wait to see where they go to next!
You can find Jenny on instagram as @jenn.lacross and Laurel is there too as @dr.laurelproulx - and of course you can follow my continuing adventures in women's health there too @michellelyons_muliebrity
If you'd like to learn more about how menstrual health and hormonal health and incontinence all intertwine, particularly for our younger female clients...then check out my online course, The Menstrual Detective, which includes the course Pelvic Health for the Young Female Athlete - all of the details for all of the courses can be found at CelebrateMuliebrity.com.
Until next time,
Onwards & Upwards! Mx
