This study aimed to find the best exercise program to reduce urinary incontinence (bladder leaks) in women who run regularly. Researchers compared three different 12-week training routines focusing on pelvic floor and abdominal muscles. The goal was to see which approach most eff…

This study followed 609 women who had vaginal surgery to correct pelvic organ prolapse (when organs drop into the vagina). The goal was to find out how many women experienced new or ongoing bladder leakage after the surgery and what factors might increase that risk. Researchers t…

This study aimed to understand if a new catheter design with many tiny holes is gentler on the bladder lining than a standard two-hole catheter. Researchers compared the two designs in 43 healthy female volunteers by looking inside the bladder before and after use. The goal was t…

This study aimed to test and validate two French-language questionnaires designed to measure sexual function. It involved 298 women who had undergone surgery for pelvic organ prolapse or incontinence. The goal was to see if these new tools were reliable for understanding how thes…
