Pelvic floor exercises and behavioral therapy
Pelvic floor exercises and behavioral therapy interventions include a 4-step treatment protocol: 1) awareness of the pelvic floor muscles, 2) teaching the specific contraction of the pelvic floor muscles, 3) teaching the timing of the contraction and maintenance of the pelvic floor muscles during the intercourse pre-orgasmic sensation with start-stop behavioral therapy, 4) the strengthening exercises of the pelvic floor muscles. For slow twitch fibers, 15 repetitive exercises including 10 seconds of submaximal contraction followed by 10 seconds of relaxation, and 10 repetitive exercises including 1 second submaximal contraction followed by 1 second relaxation for fast-twitch fibers will be given 2 times a day, 3 days a week, 8 weeks.
