Abstract
Introduction: Stress urinary incontinence has long been presumed to be associated with urethral hypermobility and pregnancy and delivery are known cause of increasing bladder neck descent. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of pelvic floor muscle exercise in women with stress urinary incontinence. Methods: Women (n=84) were randomly assigned into two groups: 44 women were randomized to an intervention group and 40 women were randomized to a control group. Pelvic floor muscle strength was measured using a perineometery device. Urinary symptoms were measured using the Urinary Distress Inventory (UDI-6), Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ-7). Results: Pelvic floor muscle strength improvement was significantly higher in the interventional group compared to the Control group (P<0.003). The UDI-6, IIQ-7, and OAB-q scores were significantly improved after 8 months in the interventional group. Conclusion: Pelvic floor muscle exercise can improve muscle strength and urinary symptoms.Biography
