Why Pregnancy Can Affect Your Back and Pelvis
During pregnancy, the body experiences several changes that may influence the musculoskeletal system.
These may include:
Changes in Posture
As the body adapts to a growing abdomen, changes in posture and movement patterns may place increased demand on the low back, hips, and pelvis.
Increased Joint Stress
Weight distribution and movement patterns change throughout pregnancy, which may affect how joints and muscles function.
Increased Muscle Demands
The muscles of the abdomen, hips, pelvis, and lower back adapt throughout pregnancy and may contribute to discomfort.
