Dyspareunia
Dyspareunia is a medical term used to describe pain during sexual intercourse. This pain can be experienced by vulva and penis owners and can occur in different areas, such as the genitals, pelvis, or lower abdomen.
Dyspareunia can have various causes, including vaginal dryness, infections, and injuries, as well as psychological factors such as anxiety, stress, or trauma.

Diastasis Recti (DRAM)
DRAM is a condition where the abdominal muscles separate, causing a gap in the midline of the abdomen. This gap can occur during pregnancy or as a result of rapid weight gain, intense abdominal exercises, or other factors that put stress on the abdominal muscles.
Some common symptoms of diastasis recti include a protruding belly or a bulge in the midsection, lower back pain, constipation, and difficulty engaging the core muscles.

Down-training
Down-training refers to exercises or techniques that focus on relaxing or releasing tension in the muscles of the pelvic floor.
Down-training exercises may be recommended in cases where the muscles are overly tight or tense, which can cause problems such as urinary incontinence, pelvic pain, and difficulty with bowel movements.
These exercises typically involve breathing techniques and gentle stretches or movements that encourage relaxation in the pelvic floor muscles.
You may be hearing of these conditions for the first time or you may be living with them. If you’re experiencing any of the above, please know you’re not alone.
