To compare the effects of pelvic floor muscle training with and without hypopressive exercises on pelvic organ prolapse in postmenopausal females

Conditions

  • Pelvic Organ Prolapse

Interventions

OTHER

hypopressive exercises

patients will receive pelvic floor muscle training with hypopressive exercises at outpatient department. Treatment will continue for 12 weeks 3 days per week. They will receive information about the localization and function of the PFM and transversus abdominis (TrA) muscles. Next, lying in a supine position with flexed knees and hips, they will localize their own pelvic floor with the help of touching their perineum. Then they will be instructed how to contract the PFM correctly, then they will directed to contract PFMs and in the end participants will be taught how to voluntarily contract the PFM simultaneously with diaphragmatic Aspiration(8-10 repetitions daily
