Summary
This study compares a mobile app-guided pelvic floor exercise program to standard in-person rehabilitation for women with stress or mixed urinary incontinence. Thirty-two adult women will follow either the app or in-person sessions for 3 months. Researchers will measure changes in quality of life and symptom severity to see if the app is a good alternative.
