Summary

Active substance
Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy and laser acupuncture
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a non-invasive, drug-free option to improve pelvic floor strength and reduce urine leakage in women with stress incontinence.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed trial with only 60 participants. Results may not apply to all women, and the benefits over standard pelvic floor training alone are uncertain.
