Summary
This study tests whether a structured group program with doctors and physiotherapists can improve quality of life for women who had a severe tear during childbirth. About 110 women will attend three group sessions focusing on healing, exercises, and emotional support. The goal is to see if this approach reduces symptoms like incontinence and improves mental health in the first year after birth.
