Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
One hundred and eighty women who participants who agree to be randomized to Kegel's or Hyacinth exercises will be randomized.
The treatment allocation will be sealed opaque enveloped and stored in a secure location.
Participants will be blinded from the treatment arm, and as much as possible, participants in different arms of the study would be given different appointment dates to avoid contamination.
Exercises will be prescribed by a trained personnel, and flexibility is added to the routine to enable tailoring to individual lifestyles and choices.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Pelvic floor exercise
Participants randomized to Kegel's exercises will be asked to contract their pelvic floor muscle for 1-10 seconds, followed by 10 seconds' relaxation.
Length of duration of exercise is tailored to individual's ability in contracting her pelvic floor muscle.
Each cycle is equivalent to 1 contraction and 1 relaxation phase. Participants will be asked to perform 3 sessions per day, and to perform their Kegel exercises at home daily.
1 session of Kegel's exercise is consists of 20 cycles of slow twitch fibre contraction and 30 repetitions of fast twitch fibre for 1 minute.

Hyacinth exercise
In this arm participants are also taught Kegel's exercises but will be additionally taught extra steps which mirrored Muslim's praying steps.
As well as their Kegel's exercises, participants will be asked to perform the extra steps at least 63 minutes per week.
Participants may choose to perform these at the same time or at a different time from their Kegel's exercises. Participants will be asked to perform 1 cycle (3 minutes and 1 second) for 3 sessions a day for daily.
Each cycle is consists of repetition of 4 positions: standing upright- 90 degree bow- prostration-sitting.
