Kegel exercises are exercises to reduce the muscles of the pelvic floor and are aimed at strengthening the intimate muscles and the muscles of the pelvis. They were named after gynecologist Arnold Kegel, who published an article in 1942 explaining the benefits of strengthening the pelvic floor, writes umnaja.ru.
Dr. Kegel found that improving muscle tone in this area helps to solve many gynecological problems, such as uterus prolapse, urinary incontinence, etc. In addition, intimate muscle training improves the sex life of women, increases the frequency and power of orgasm. Based on the results of his research, Dr. Kegel recommended that women, especially those who went through pregnancy and childbirth, as well as those who are older than 40 years, regularly perform “Kegel exercises”.
At the moment there are many schools that teach women to train intimate muscles, but they are all based on the Kegel exercises; only some technical issues and simulators used are different. Some fans of these practices claim that with the help of these exercises you can improve hormonal levels and even return youth, but there is no scientific evidence for this yet.
But are Kegel exercises really necessary and useful for all women? According to doctors, not everything is so simple:
First, if you do not have any of the health problems described above, and you lead an active lifestyle (play sports, walk a lot during the day), then your pelvic muscles are likely to be sufficiently trained. In the process of physical activity, especially during squats or carrying weights, we instinctively strain these muscles, making it imperceptible to ourselves.
Secondly, according to Dr. Briann Grogan, some women experience chronic pelvic tension. As a result, these women most often experience constant unpleasant tension in the pelvic area and often experience painful sensations during sex because they cannot relax sufficiently. These women kegel exercises are contraindicated. They should, on the contrary, learn to relax intimate muscles with the help of various breathing and physical practices. In addition, in the presence of any gynecological diseases (especially of an inflammatory nature) and during pregnancy, it is advisable to consult a doctor before starting to perform these exercises.
In general, Kegel exercises are an important tool for maintaining women's health, which every girl and woman should know about. But, like any physical practice, they have contraindications, which should also be remembered.
