Pelvic Floor Muscle Training vs. Vaginal Vibration Cone Therapy for Postpartum Dyspareunia and Vaginal Laxity.

Pelvic floor dysfunction and sexual health issues are common postpartum due to weakened pelvic muscles, significantly impacting women's quality of life (QoL). Pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) is a widely used approach to address these issues. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of two rehabilitation methods-vibrating vaginal cones (VCG) and PFMT exercises (CG)-in improving pelvic floor muscle strength, reducing dyspareunia, and enhancing sexual function in postpartum women.

Introduction And Importance: Bladder exstrophy (BE) is a rare congenital anomaly in which the anterior wall of the bladder is absent. In females, sexuality and fertility may be negatively affected with the association with pubic diastasis, dysplasia of the pelvic floor muscles, clitoris bifurcated, short vagina or narrow introitus.
Presentation Of Case: We present a case of 26-year-old woman with treated BE, vaginoplasty, and bicornuate uterus that came at week 36 of gestation.

Article Synopsis
- Postpartum urinary incontinence (UI) commonly affects women, impacting their quality of life and participation in physical activities, with conservative treatments like pelvic floor muscle training being first-line options.
- A systematic review of 17 randomized controlled trials found that supervised pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) and vaginal cones significantly reduced UI rates compared to individual training sessions.
- Combining individual PFMT with acupuncture or moxibustion, and using electrical stimulation with core training, showed improved severity of symptoms and enhanced quality of life compared to standard treatments alone.

Article Synopsis
- * Two groups of women participated: one received laser therapy combined with muscle strengthening exercises, while the other only performed exercises without laser treatment (placebo).
- * Results showed that the group receiving laser therapy significantly improved their quality of life, muscle strength, and endurance compared to the placebo group, suggesting that this treatment method is beneficial for pelvic floor dysfunction.
