Conditions

  • Prevention Pelvic Muscle Dysfunction

Interventions

OTHER

Standard pelvic floor exercises

Pelvic floor muscle exercises will be given as 2 separate exercises including fast and slow contractions. For fast contractions, participants will be asked to contract their pelvic floor muscles strongly, hold them contracted for 5 seconds, and then relax them. For slow contractions, participants will be asked to gradually contract the pelvic floor muscles, hold them at maximum contraction for 5 seconds, and relax them gradually. Participants will be asked to perform 10 slow contractions after every 10 fast contractions. The aim is to train strength, coordination, endurance, and symmetry of pelvic floor muscles, motor learning and control, dynamic lumbopelvic stability, pelvic floor, and abdominal co-contraction. Every day, 10 fast, and 10 slow contractions with a total of 20 repetitions will be applied without changing the number by modifying the exercises every week. It will be applied for a total of 12 weeks.

OTHER

Involuntary reflexive pelvic floor exercises

Reflexive exercises (jump, squat jump, etc.) with 20 repetitions per day will be applied to the participants for 12 weeks with modifications every week.
