Summary

This study tests a simple, at-home video program that teaches people how to better control their anal and belly muscles to reduce accidental bowel leaks and improve constipation. About 96 adults with these issues will either use the video exercises or take a placebo pill. The goal is to see if this non-invasive training works as well as standard in-clinic biofeedback.
