What is Diastasis Recti?

Diastasis recti is a condition that occurs when the two muscles of the abdomen (the rectus abdominis) separate. This can happen during pregnancy, childbirth, or as a result of other factors such as obesity or weak core muscles. When the rectus abdominis muscles separate, it creates a gap in the abdomen that can bulge out. This gap can also lead to pain, weakness, and other health problems.

Symptoms of Diastasis Recti

The symptoms of diastasis recti can vary depending on the severity of the condition. Some common symptoms include:

A bulge in the abdomen, especially when you cough, laugh, or sneeze
Pain in the lower back or pelvis
Difficulty with bowel movements
Incontinence
Hernias
Poor posture
Difficulty with exercise

Causes of Diastasis Recti

The most common cause of diastasis recti is pregnancy. During pregnancy, the hormone relaxin is released, which relaxes the ligaments and muscles in the abdomen. This allows the uterus to grow and accommodate the baby. However, it can also cause the rectus abdominis muscles to separate. Other factors that can contribute to diastasis recti include:

Obesity
Weak core muscles
Multiple pregnancies
Large babies
Cesarean section
Pelvic floor dysfunction

Treatment for Diastasis Recti

The treatment for diastasis recti will vary depending on the severity of the condition. In some cases, simple lifestyle changes, such as losing weight or strengthening the core muscles, may be enough to improve the condition. In other cases, surgery may be necessary to repair the separated muscles.
