Questions and answers in PELVIC mode
Q
How long will it take to see results?
A The amount of time varies from woman to woman.
It is also dependent on the type of incontinence from
which you are suffering.
STRESS Incontinence -
improvement comes slowly with the building
of muscle fibre and nerve sensitivity. This can take
up to 2 months.
URGE Incontinence -
improvements are made by reducing the false signals
sent by the bladder to the brain. Results can be seen in
as little as 14 days
MIXED Incontinence -
improvements are made by building the muscle fibre
and nerve sensitivity as well as reducing the false
signals being sent to the brain. This can take slightly
longer, but you should be able to notice
a difference within 21 days.
