Group pelvic floor training before HoLEP surgery
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether group pelvic floor exercises done before HoLEP surgery can improve recovery and urinary symptoms in men with an enlarged prostate. It may help some people feel better sooner by strengthening the muscles that control urination.
