Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
PFME Group
In this training, patients are taught pelvic floor exercises, which involve slow and fast muscle contractions that train both Type 1 and Type 2 muscle fibers, using vaginal palpation. During fast contractions, patients are asked to quickly contract and relax their pelvic floor muscles. The image of "turning the faucet off and on" is used to help patients better understand this exercise. During slow contractions, patients are asked to slowly tighten their pelvic floor muscles, hold them for 10 seconds, and then slowly relax them. One set of pelvic floor muscle exercises consists of 10 fast contractions and 10 slow contractions. According to this program, pelvic floor exercises are performed in weeks 1-2, 2 sets in weeks 3-4, 4 sets in weeks 5-6, 8 sets in weeks 7-8, and 10 sets in weeks 8-12. Assessments will be conducted twice, baseline and post treatment (at 10 week).
PFMT Group
In this training, patients are taught pelvic floor exercises, which involve slow and fast muscle contractions that train both Type 1 and Type 2 muscle fibers, using vaginal palpation. During fast contractions, patients are asked to quickly contract and relax their pelvic floor muscles. The image of "turning the faucet off and on" is used to help patients better understand this exercise.

PFME+Laser
PFMT, patients are taught pelvic floor exercises, which involve slow and fast muscle contractions that train both Type 1 and Type 2 muscle fibers, using vaginal palpation. During fast contractions, patients are asked to quickly contract and relax their pelvic floor muscles. The image of "turning the faucet off and on" is used to help patients better understand this exercise. During slow contractions, patients are asked to slowly tighten their pelvic floor muscles, hold them for 10 seconds, and then slowly relax them. One set of pelvic floor muscle exercises consists of 10 fast contractions and 10 slow contractions. Assessments will be conducted twice, baseline and post treatment (at 10 weeks). Laser was also applied to this group. Laser application is applied to 6 points in the perineal area. Continue and biostimulatory mode, intensity 6W, energy density 120J/cm2. Application time is 2 minutes for each point, and a total of 6 sessions are applied 3 time.

Plasebo Laser
This group will only receive placebo laser treatment. The sound will be turned up as if the laser is being applied, but no warning will be given. The laser device will be aimed at 6 points in the perineal area without being plugged in. Assessments will be conducted twice, baseline and post treatment (at 10 weeks).
Plasebo Laser
The laser device will be held on 6 points in the perineal area for the same period of time without being plugged in.
