Viewing the Pelvic Floor Through a Philosophical Lens: Constructing a Novel Theoretical System for Pelvic Floor...

Current research on pelvic floor disorders is constrained by fragmented disciplinary approaches, static anatomical views, and insufficient attention to biomechanical balance. This paper is aimed at constructing a novel theoretical framework for pelvic floor stress dysfunction disorders (PFSDs) by integrating philosophical and scientific methodologies.

Using First Principles thinking, we redefine PFSD as a disruption of dynamic biomechanical equilibrium centered on the concept of "force." Inductive and deductive reasoning are applied to critically evaluate existing theories (e.g., Three-Compartment, Hammock), while verification and falsification principles are employed to expose logical inconsistencies between etiology and treatment.

The analysis reveals fundamental limitations in current theories, which fail to account for the dynamic and integrated nature of pelvic floor function. We propose physiological biomechanical reconstruction-rather than symptom-based repair-as the core therapeutic objective. Boundary-breaking innovation promotes a holistic understanding of pelvic floor synergy across disciplines.

This philosophically grounded framework shifts the focus from static anatomy to dynamic biomechanical balance, offering a logical basis for evidence-based PFSD management. It supports a transition from empirical to mechanism-driven approaches in both research and clinical practice.
