Bladder control and the pelvic floor

Pelvic floor muscles help support the bladder and bowel. Leakage or urgency can have different causes; seek professional advice for persistent symptoms.

“Leakage is not all the same: leaking when coughing and sudden urgency can have different causes.”

Leakage is not all the same

Leakage with coughing or movement and sudden urgency can relate to different causes. Seek professional assessment.

Exercise context

General health sources discuss pelvic floor exercise in relation to bladder control. This is not a treatment-effectiveness claim for PelviQ.

Building a regular routine

Kegel practice requires identifying the right muscles and making exercise consistent. PelviQ App brings guided videos, breathing and reminders together.

How the PelviQ device fits

Control a compatible PelviQ device from the app and add the device session to your daily plan alongside Kegel and breathing.
