Summary

This study tests whether starting a gentle exercise program soon after a C-section or hysterectomy can help strengthen the abdominal muscles. Sixty women aged 35-50 will do light walking, posture exercises, and plank holds over 6 weeks. Ultrasound will measure muscle thickness before and after the program.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
exercise program
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple, drug-free way to help women recover abdominal strength faster after surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 60 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The exercises are gentle and low-risk, but the benefit may be modest.
