Dr. Jocelyn Fitzgerald, an assistant professor at the University of Pittsburgh, emphasizes the importance of urogynecology in addressing pelvic floor disorders that can commonly arise from childbirth. Many women are unaware of the conditions treated by urogynecologists, such as vaginal prolapse. Fitzgerald advocates for increased awareness of the physical ramifications of motherhood, believing women should prepare themselves for the realities of childbirth. She feels frustrated that many are blindsided by the complications they may face, highlighting the need for better education about these issues.
I think it's so important for women to approach their reproductive life strategically. What I focus on is the physical ramifications.
We portray motherhood as this beautiful calling... But that doesn't change the fact that the calling comes with some real costs.
