Kegel Exercises for Erectile Dysfunction and Bladder Control Treatment

The stepbystep instructions guide you on the proper execution of Kegel exercises for ED and urinary incontinence. Whether lying on your side or sitting, you'll learn how to place your index and third fingers on the perineum and apply gentle pressure for feedback about using the correct Kegel exercise technique and pelvic floor muscle activation.

Self Check Kegels Method

By intentionally shortening the penis, you should feel a subtle bulge or firmness under your fingers on your perineum, indicating the Kegel exercise is performed correctly. Remember to also relax the pelvic floor muscles after each contraction, which is equally important.

Checking and Progressing Kegel Exercises

To ensure you're using the correct pelvic floor muscles, two reliable treatment methods are recommended. Perform a urine flow interruption test once a week, but avoid making it a regular practice to avoid interrupting bladder emptying. Additionally, stand sideon to a mirror and observe your penis moving inward towards your body and slightly up during the correct Kegel exercise, followed by pelvic floor relaxation and return to its resting position.

Treatment progress can be checked using the same two Kegel exercise techniques. Improved pelvic floor muscle strength and power is indicated by the ability to quickly stop the flow of urine midstream or earlier. Performing Kegel exercises in standing progressively strengthens the pelvic floor muscles when compared with lying down or seated exercises.

Consistent practice, starting gently and gradually increasing exercise intensity, is key to effective treatment. Incorporating these Physiotherapy treatment techniques into your Kegel exercises can overcome erectile dysfunction and regain control over bladder leakage.
