Can pelvic floor trainers help with dyspareunia?
Pelvic floor trainers, when used appropriately, can help manage some forms of dyspareunia by strengthening or relaxing pelvic muscles, but individual assessment is essential.
Detailed Medical Explanation
For some women, especially those with weak pelvic muscles or postnatal changes, trainers or Kegel devices can help improve control and support vaginal tissues. For others, particularly with overactive or tense muscles, relaxation and manual therapy may be better. A specialist pelvic health physiotherapist can guide personalised treatment.
