Summary
This study looked at whether adding a special type of electrical stimulation to standard pelvic floor exercises can help women with very weak pelvic floor muscles and stress urinary incontinence. Fifty women who had given birth 6-18 months earlier and had very weak muscles participated. The goal was to see if the combination therapy could improve muscle strength and reduce urine leakage.
