201- The Hidden Connection Between POTS, MCAS, Hypermobility, Pelvic Venous Disorder & Pelvic Floor Dysfunction

Have you ever felt like your symptoms are all over the place?

Dizziness when standing. Racing heart. Pelvic pain. Bladder issues. Digestive symptoms. Fatigue. Pelvic pressure. Anxiety-like symptoms.

What if these seemingly unrelated symptoms were actually connected?

In this episode, Dr. Des explores the growing recognition of the relationship between Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), Pelvic Venous Disorder (PeVD), hypermobility, and pelvic floor dysfunction. While these conditions are often treated separately, many women experience overlapping symptoms that can leave them feeling frustrated, dismissed, and searching for answers.

We'll discuss how connective tissue, the nervous system, circulation, and pelvic floor function may all play a role in the bigger picture—and why a whole-body approach is often essential for lasting improvement.

Whether you've been diagnosed with one of these conditions, suspect you may be dealing with symptoms, or simply want to better understand your body, this episode is packed with valuable information and validation.
