What Are Kegel Exercises?
Kegel exercises, or pelvic floor exercises, strengthen the pelvic floor muscles by focusing on their contraction and relaxation. They support the bladder, bowel, and uterus in females, and the bladder in males. Regular practice can improve bladder control, reduce urinary incontinence, and enhance pelvic health. For men, Kegels may also boost sexual performance and help with issues related to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
