This study follows women who get a pessary (a supportive device placed in the vagina) for pelvic organ prolapse or stress urinary incontinence. Researchers want to learn about their experiences with the fitting and use of the pessary.
This study checks how pelvic floor function and ultrasound (picture) findings relate to each other about one year after childbirth. You may help researchers understand which physical changes after vaginal birth matter most and how to monitor them.
This study uses ultrasound scans to measure changes in the vagina and bladder support in women who have given birth. It aims to better understand vaginal laxity and bladder position, which may help guide future treatments.
This trial tests whether adding ultrasound and muscle-activity feedback to standard pelvic floor exercises helps women with pelvic floor problems like organ prolapse, stress incontinence, or difficulty emptying the bladder.
This trial tests a new implant that stimulates a nerve in your pelvic area to help control both stress and urge urine leaks. It might be an option if you've tried other treatments like bladder training or medicine and they didn't help enough or caused side effects.
This study tests a medical program designed to help nerves heal better after surgery for long-term pelvic or buttock nerve pain. It looks at results one year after a minimally invasive operation to free compressed nerves.
