Transgender Pelvic Health
We can help improve the outcomes of sexual reassignment surgery as well as help with common complications that accompany gender affirmation practices like mastectomy or breast augmentation. These procedures impact the chest muscles and the lymphatic system. A PT can help ensure your body is able to function properly after these changes.
Following surgery, obstacles can arise limiting the healing process. Some of these hurdles might be due to the major anatomical changes following bottom surgeries and can lead to :
-
Pelvic pain
-
Difficulty using/progressing dilators
-
Urinary incontinence
-
Voiding dysfunction
-
Dyspareunia (pain with intercourse)
-
Recurrent urinary tract infections
-
Decreased sexual response
A skilled and experienced PT trained in transgender care will help encourage good habits and minimize any negative side effects you may experience as a result.
We can also help with wound care and scar concerns.

“Dr. Soni is the PT you didn't know you needed. As a Crossfitter, I had proactively sought out a pelvic floor therapist in my 2nd trimester. What I didn't realize was that Dr. Soni is extremely knowledgeable about post c-section recovery, which is what I ended up needing. Dr. Soni has been someone who I can count on to answer my questions, give me reassurance, and help guide me through questions both during and after pregnancy. There has been a certain peace of mind that Dr. Soni has provided throughout my whole journey!”

“I'm so glad that I decided to go to see Dr. Soni. I have suffered with bladder, side, and bowel discomfort for years and she has helped me so much. The exercises, diet recommendations and relaxation techniques that she recommended worked great and I feel like myself again. I love her comfortable office atmosphere and focus on my specific issues. She is very knowledgeable and helped me to find relief in areas other than the pelvis that were contributing to my problem. She offers solutions that conventional doctors do not. This gave me a unique and better way of dealing with my pain. I was looking for more holistic healing rather than typical testing and medications and I found that with Dr. Soni. I highly recommend Pelvic Elements!”
