Summary

This study tests whether low-intensity shockwave therapy or pulsed electromagnetic field therapy, each combined with pelvic floor muscle training, can improve sexual function in women with sexual dysfunction. 90 premenopausal women aged 20-50 will be randomly assigned to one of three groups for 8 weeks of treatment, followed by 8 weeks of monitoring. The main goal is to see if these therapies boost scores on a standard sexual function questionnaire.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could offer new non-drug options to improve sexual function and quality of life for women with sexual dysfunction.
