Exercises that strengthen the sling of muscle under the bladder and bowel, used to reduce leaking and to help erections.
Prostate Cancer UK describes finding the muscles by tightening as if controlling wind and as if stopping mid-flow, then slow holds of up to 10 seconds repeated up to 10 times with equal rests, plus fast contractions. It suggests starting four to six weeks before surgery, not doing them while a catheter is in, and starting again as soon as it is out. They are also used for urgency, after-dribble, leaking at orgasm and some bowel problems.
