This study tests two non-drug therapies — pain education and body awareness exercises — to see if they help women with long-term pelvic pain feel better. You would attend sessions to learn about pain and do gentle movements.
This trial tests if a non-invasive nerve stimulation device (TaVNS) can reduce pain, urinary symptoms, and mood issues in men with moderate to severe chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS). It may offer a new drug-free option for symptom relief.
This study tests whether structured talking therapy (CBT) or education/support helps reduce chronic pelvic pain problems in adults. It compares two approaches over time and uses symptom diaries and follow-up check-ins to see which works better.
This study tests whether pelvic floor muscle training with biofeedback (a method that shows you how your muscles are working) can improve erectile function in men with low testosterone (hypogonadism) and erectile dysfunction. It aims to help you understand if this non-surgical approach could be a helpful treatment option for you.
This study tests whether combining pelvic floor muscle exercises with bladder training can help reduce how often men need to urinate. It aims to improve bladder control and reduce the number of bathroom trips.
This study looks at how pelvic floor muscle fitness changes during treatment for chronic pelvic pain in women. It may help determine if physical therapy can improve pain and muscle function.
