Nerve stimulation may ease sexual dysfunction and back Pain—Trial puts it to the test
NCT ID NCT07764445
First seen Aug 14, 2026 · Last updated Aug 14, 2026
Summary
This trial tests whether transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (TTNS), a non-invasive nerve stimulation technique, can improve sexual function and pelvic alignment in women aged 25–35 who have both low back pain and female sexual dysfunction. Participants will receive TTNS alongside pelvic floor (Kegel) exercises, and researchers will measure changes in sexual function, pelvic tilt, lumbar curve, spinal mobility, and pelvic floor muscle activity. The goal is to see if adding TTNS offers benefits beyond exercises alone.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (TTNS) plus pelvic floor (Kegel) exercises
- What this could lead to
- If effective, this approach could offer a non-invasive, drug-free option to improve sexual function and pelvic alignment in women with both low back pain and sexual dysfunction.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial with only 40 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The treatment may not outperform standard pelvic floor exercises, and individual responses can vary.
