The slight anterior pelvic tilt is a physiological posture in healthy males and females, however, excessive anterior pelvic tilt is associated with different lumbopelvic discomfort either during gestation or after childbirth.

As pregnant women move from the 1st to the 3rd trimester, they exhibit a notable increase in the angle of pelvic tilting. This may explain the painful pelvic girdle syndrome during gestation which can last for several weeks postpartum.

When women finish their 6 weeks of puerperium, it may be suspected to return in the pelvic tilting angle to its measurements prior to gestation.
