Pelvic floor training for urine leakage after prostate surgery
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study tests a special training program using touch and movement to strengthen pelvic floor muscles in men who leak urine after prostate cancer surgery. It may help you regain bladder control more quickly.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old.
- You have had surgery to remove your prostate (radical prostatectomy) for prostate cancer.
- You are not currently in another research study.
- You are able to follow the study instructions and attend follow-up visits.

This study tests if special exercises for the muscles that control urination (pelvic floor muscles) can help men who have had their prostate removed due to cancer to regain bladder control. It may help you if you are older than 40, did not have leaking urine before surgery, and have not had other major surgeries or health issues.
This study tests a special exercise program (hypopressive exercises) to see if it can help men who have both leaking urine and erection problems after prostate cancer surgery. You would learn gentle movements that may strengthen your pelvic muscles and improve control.
This study tests a non-invasive (no surgery or needles) electrical stimulation device to help men regain bladder control after prostate removal surgery. The device uses gentle electrical pulses on the pelvic floor muscles to retrain them and reduce urine leakage.
This study tests a postural training program to help men who leak urine after prostate surgery. You will learn specific techniques to control leaks when you stand up or sit down.
This trial studies whether applying an external magnetic treatment (magnetic stimulation), doing pelvic floor muscle exercises, or doing both together can reduce urinary leakage after radical prostatectomy. The goal is to find which approach works best for men recovering bladder control after prostate cancer surgery.
This study tests whether adding aerobic exercise (like walking or cycling) and relaxation to pelvic floor muscle training helps men recover bladder control and sexual function after prostate cancer surgery. You may be eligible if you had nerve-sparing robotic prostate removal in the last year and can do pelvic floor exercises.
