In this episode of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, Dr. Linda Kiley joins Dr. Scott Sherr for a groundbreaking conversation on functional urogynecology — exploring the real causes of pelvic and bladder pain that most conventional models miss.
Dr. Kiley shares how she uses muscle exams, peptide protocols, and root-cause diagnostics to treat conditions like interstitial cystitis, chronic UTIs, pelvic floor dysfunction, and endometriosis — often without surgery or long-term antibiotics.
If you or someone you love has been told "there's nothing wrong" but still struggles with pelvic discomfort, bladder issues, or sexual pain, this episode is a must-listen.
Join us as we explore:
• The pelvic floor as a dynamic system — not just "tight or weak"
• Biofilms, interstitial cystitis, and smart testing for chronic infections
• How gut health and systemic inflammation drive pelvic pain
• Natural, non-invasive approaches to bladder and pelvic restoration
This episode is for you if:
• You experience chronic UTIs, bladder discomfort, or pelvic pain
• You've been dismissed or misdiagnosed by conventional providers
• You're a clinician seeking better diagnostics for pelvic dysfunction
• You want to understand how muscle tone, breathing, and biofilms intersect
