Pelvic floor training for urine leaks in women's rugby players
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a pelvic floor muscle training program to improve bladder control and muscle strength in female rugby players. If you leak urine during activity, this could help you manage it while staying active.

This study tests a training program designed to help young female athletes who experience urinary leakage during sports. The program combines exercises and education to see if it can reduce or stop leakage.
This study tests whether pelvic floor muscle training (exercises) can improve urinary incontinence (urine leakage) in Nepalese women. If you qualify, you may be asked to learn and do the exercises as part of a research program and share feedback during follow-up.
This study tests whether adding mental practice (imagining the exercises) to standard pelvic floor muscle training helps postmenopausal women with stress urinary incontinence (leaking urine when you cough, sneeze, or exercise) improve their symptoms. It aims to see if this extra mental approach makes the training more effective.
This trial tests a special exercise method that uses light tourniquets on the legs to help strengthen muscles and reduce urine leakage in women after menopause. If you leak urine at least twice a week, this approach might improve your symptoms without surgery.
This study tests a new exercise program that coordinates your core and pelvic floor muscles to help reduce urine leakage. If you have stress, urge, or mixed incontinence, this program may help you gain better bladder control.
