Pelvic changes after birth and urine leakage risk
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how changes in the pelvis after delivery might be linked to urine leaking after childbirth. It compares women who had a vaginal birth, a vacuum-assisted birth, or a C-section to understand the connection.

This study follows women during pregnancy and after childbirth to measure how the pelvic floor muscles change. The goal is to understand normal changes so doctors can better prevent or treat problems like incontinence or prolapse later.
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 compares different delivery positions to see how they impact pelvic floor function after childbirth. It might help you understand which position could be best for your recovery.
This study tests whether a pelvic floor training program delivered through a smartphone app can help first-time moms who leak urine after childbirth. The program is designed for women who had a vaginal delivery with certain risk factors for ongoing pelvic floor issues.
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 explores how vaginal tissue changes after childbirth and whether the way you delivered (vaginal birth vs. cesarean section) makes a difference. Understanding these changes may help doctors better support women's health after pregnancy.
