The pelvic floor disorders (PFDs) are common disorder in the women’s health field with prevalence up to 40% of females. There are many factors to cause this disorder, but one of the main causes is the weakness or overactivity (spasm) in the pelvic floor muscles (PFMs). PFMs is going under stress during pregnancy, labour and menopause, all causes its weakness and the incidence of PFDs such as urinary incontinence or pelvic organ prolapse. On the other hand, PFMs overactivity can cause sexual disorders, pelvic pain, difficulty in passing urine or emptying bowel. Physiotherapy as a profession aims to prevent and treat diseases and disabilities through exercises and different manual and electrical techniques. Physical therapy for women’s health is a growing field in the physiotherapy with solid evidence base body of knowledge. So, there is a need to widen the scope of the practice and involve more trained physical therapy practitioners in women’s health field according to the guidelines of professional authorities in different parts of the world.
