Research Abstract |
Objective: To clarify the effects of pelvic floor muscle training on pelvic floor morphology by comparing magnetic resonance (MR) images of pregnant women who underwent pelvic floor muscle training starting in the second trimester of pregnancy to seven months postpartum (training group) with those of pregnant women who did not train (non-training group). Results: There was no difference in the presence of urinary incontinence during pregnancy between the training and non-training groups. However, 6 months after delivery and onward, there were significantly fewer cases of urinary incontinence in the training group. Significant positional shift of the bladder neck was observed in the training group on MR evaluations of the pelvic floor 4 months after delivery, and the bladder neck had elevated significantly at 6 months postpartum. These findings suggest that pelvic floor muscle training during pregnancy can help recover pelvic floor supporting strength that becomes lax after childbirth.
