Pelvic Floor Health and Hormonal Changes: How Roots Wellness Supports Women’s Wellness

Pelvic floor symptoms often show up at the same times your hormones are shifting; postpartum, perimenopause, and menopause. If you’ve noticed loss of bladder control, changes in sensation, vaginal dryness, or discomfort during intimacy, you’re not “broken,” and you’re definitely not alone.


At Roots Wellness, Women’s Wellness is built around solutions that support both function and comfort, especially when hormonal changes contribute to tissue changes, pelvic floor weakness, and urinary symptoms. That includes EmpowerRF by InMode—an advanced in-office platform that includes treatments like Morpheus V, FormaV, and Vtone to support pelvic floor strength, bladder control, and vaginal wellness.


Why hormones impact pelvic floor health


Hormones help regulate circulation, tissue integrity, collagen production, and hydration. When hormones shift, the pelvic region can be affected in several ways:


  • Reduced collagen over time can contribute to laxity and tissue thinning

  • Changes in hydration and lubrication can lead to dryness or irritation

  • Muscle tone and coordination can change, affecting pelvic support

  • Blood flow shifts can impact sensation and comfort


These changes are common postpartum and especially during perimenopause/menopause, which is why pelvic floor concerns often appear alongside searches like weak pelvic floor, strengthening pelvic floor muscles, and pelvic floor therapy near me.


Common symptoms Roots Wellness helps address


Women’s wellness concerns can be both physical and quality-of-life related. Roots Wellness therapies are designed to help with:


  • Bladder control concerns including stress, urge, and mixed urinary incontinence

  • Vaginal dryness, reduced lubrication, or irritation

  • Vaginal laxity or decreased sensation

  • Painful sex and discomfort

  • Pelvic floor weakness and reduced muscle coordination


If you’ve experienced leaking with laughing, sneezing, jumping, or exercise, that’s a common sign of pelvic floor weakness—and you have options.


EmpowerRF by InMode: advanced women’s wellness support


EmpowerRF by InMode is a multi-functional in-office platform used for women’s wellness therapies.


At Roots Wellness, it’s used to support:


  • Neuromuscular re-education for weak pelvic floor muscles

  • Relief from stress, urge, and mixed urinary incontinence

  • Support for pain-related pelvic concerns

  • Improved blood circulation

  • Targeting subdermal adipose tissue (when relevant to treatment goals)


In simple terms: EmpowerRF is designed to help retrain pelvic floor function and support comfort, particularly when hormonal shifts contribute to pelvic changes.


Morpheus V: vaginal rejuvenation + bladder control support


If you’re looking for non-surgical, non-invasive vaginal rejuvenation and bladder control, Morpheus V is one of the key offerings at Roots Wellness.


Because collagen naturally declines with age, changes like looseness and dryness can occur internally and externally. Morpheus V is designed to address:


  • Vaginal dryness

  • Laxity

  • Lubrication

  • Bladder control goals (as part of overall pelvic wellness)


Roots Wellness recommends at least 48 hours of no intercourse and vaginal rest following treatment.


FormaV: radiofrequency tightening + circulation support


FormaV is a vaginal rejuvenation option that uses radiofrequency-controlled heat to tighten and improve sensation and circulation inside and outside the vagina.


It’s designed to:


  • Stimulate collagen and elastin

  • Remodel vaginal tissues over time

  • Support concerns like painful sex and vaginal dryness


This is often a great fit for clients who want gentle RF-based support focused on tissue quality, comfort, and circulation.


Vtone: pelvic floor rehabilitation for urinary incontinence


Vtone is an FDA-approved non-surgical device that uses Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) to rehabilitate the pelvic floor.


At Roots Wellness, Vtone is used for urinary incontinence concerns including:


  • Stress incontinence

  • Urge incontinence

  • Mixed urinary incontinence


For many people, this pairs well with an overall plan for pelvic floor strengthening, especially when symptoms involve bladder leakage or reduced pelvic muscle function.


How to choose the right option


A lot of women assume they have to pick between “do Kegels forever” or “do surgery.” In reality, there’s a middle path, especially with modern in-office therapies.


A general way to think about it:


  • If your main concern is urinary incontinence and pelvic floor weakness: Vtone and EmpowerRF are often central options

  • If your symptoms include vaginal dryness, lubrication, laxity, and tissue quality: Morpheus V or FormaV may be a better fit

  • If you want a comprehensive approach that supports pelvic floor function and broader women’s wellness goals: EmpowerRF by InMode provides a versatile platform that can be tailored to your needs


(Your provider will recommend what fits your symptoms, goals, and comfort level.)


Conclusion


Hormonal changes can affect collagen, circulation, tissue hydration, and pelvic muscle function, so it makes sense that pelvic floor symptoms often appear postpartum or during menopause transitions. Whether you’re dealing with a weak pelvic floor, loss of bladder control, painful sex, vaginal dryness, or changes in sensation, you have options beyond “just live with it.”
