Uterine Prolapse Clinical Trials

One common pelvic floor condition, particularly in postpartum or later life, is uterine prolapse. It is caused by weak pelvic floor muscles and connective tissues and often presents with pain, urinary incontinence, and reduced quality of life. Although pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) is commonly used, newer methods such as Hypopressive Exercises (HE) and Pelvic Floor Functional Movement Retraining (PFFMR) offer promising approaches. HE focuses on posture and breathing strategies to reduce intra-abdominal pressure, while PFFMR retrains pelvic stability and function through integrated movement patterns. This study aims to evaluate the combined effects of HE and PFFMR on pain, urogynecological symptoms, and quality of life in women with uterine prolapse, compared to single interventions. This randomized clinical trial will include 32 women aged 30-60 years with stage I-II uterine prolapse at Ganga Ram Hospital, Lahore. Participants will undergo an 8-week program with supervised sessions three times per week. Outcomes will be assessed using the Pelvic Floor Bother Questionnaire (PFBQ), Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS), and Prolapse Quality of Life Questionnaire (P-QoL), and analyzed using SPSS version 25.0.
