Pelvic floor muscle exercises are incredibly effective as a first-line treatment for a variety of bladder, bowel and pelvic floor issues.
Your pelvic floor muscles also play an important role in your sex life too! All women should perform pelvic floor exercises on a daily basis, preferably three times a day.
There is excellent research to show that this can help keep your pelvic floor healthy, and prevent problems such as stress incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse. For women who experience problems—such as bladder or bowel leakage, or pelvic organ prolapse—pelvic floor muscle exercises should be practised up to six times a day.
