Summary
This study looks at two exercise programs for women who leak urine after having a baby. One program uses special breathing and posture exercises (hypopressive exercises), and the other uses standard pelvic floor muscle training. The goal is to see which works better to reduce leakage and improve daily life. The study includes 38 women who had a vaginal delivery within the last six months.
