Many women know the pain of menstruation, the pleasure of an orgasm or all the emotions that come with childbirth. It is different for each person and for the men it is something that is difficult to understand. Have you ever thought of turning your period into a song? What genre would that be? Hard rock maybe?
Elvie, a women’s health app, has created a pelvic floor playlist. This playlist tries to imitate the sound of the pelvic floor during childbirth, for example. It may not be an idea that you would have come up with on your own, but it does sound very interesting. But why a playlist? Elvie wants women to become more aware of their pelvic floor and its many functions. Research from the Women’s App found that nearly a third of women in the UK have little to no knowledge about their pelvic floor. In addition, almost half of the respondents say that they would do nothing if they experienced problems with their pelvic floor.
The playlist was created in collaboration with singer-songwriter Jazz Morley and contains three songs. It orgasm number begins, according to the description, dreamy and relaxed. This is to represent the ‘relaxed state of the pelvic floor, as blood flows to the genitals’. The moment the muscles of the vagina tighten, the tone of the music changes. It’s getting stronger. “The music matches the speed and vibration of pelvic floor contraction by settling into rhythmic waves and peaks,” the description reads.
But what does a pregnancy and delivery sound like?
In the song of pregnancy and childbirth, the weakening of the pelvic floor is heard through a gradually falling pitch. “As the baby is pushed down through the pelvis, the pelvic floor muscles lengthen and stretch,” the description reads. ‘Here the low tones are temporarily lifted and floating strings can be heard’. You then hear a very low, almost toneless dragging sound that represents a pelvic floor with less elasticity after childbirth.
And then we have the bloody and cramping week of menstruation, which is no fun for many. Perhaps you can identify with the sound of your pelvic floor during that period. It starts with a ‘rhythmic low beating’ that reflects the lowered pelvic floor. “The tone of the song gets stronger as you enter the luteal phase,” Morley describes on the song. This phase is between your ovulation and the first day of your period. This is also the time when women can experience their menstrual complaints, such as back pain and cramps.
Train your pelvic floor
“Despite being critically important to women, pelvic floor health is still often overlooked. In addition, little time is invested in it,” says Tania Boler, founder of Elvie. “So perhaps it’s not surprising that so many women don’t know much about this muscle.”
Boler says that they built their own pelvic floor trainer at Elvie, so that they let women visualize their pelvic floor and train it correctly. “It’s such a crucial part of the body that so many women don’t know about. This playlist gives you an inside look. We hope that women learn about the role their pelvic floor plays in their health,” concludes Boler.
