Vaginal tightening vs pelvic floor therapy: pros and cons?

Vaginal tightening treatments and pelvic floor therapy both aim to improve vaginal tone and function, but work differently. Tightening treatments can provide faster results, while pelvic floor therapy is natural, non-invasive, and has long-term health benefits.

Clinical Context

Tightening treatments may be considered for women who do not respond to physiotherapy or have significant laxity. Pelvic floor therapy is always first-line and suitable for most women.

Evidence-Based Approaches

UK guidelines recommend pelvic floor therapy as the safest first approach. Consult a specialist to discuss pros, cons, and your goals. RCOG: Pelvic floor leaflet.
