Kegel Exerciser

A Kegel exerciser is a device or tool designed to help strengthen the pelvic floor muscles—the muscles that support the bladder, uterus (in people with a uterus), and bowel. These exercises are beneficial for both women and men, but they’re most commonly associated with postpartum recovery, bladder control, and sexual health.

Types of Kegel Exercisers:

1. Manual Devices:

   • Ben Wa balls / Kegel balls – Small weighted balls inserted into the vagina to stimulate muscle engagement.

   • Resistance-based tools – Devices that provide physical resistance when you squeeze.

2. Electronic or Smart Devices:

   • Biofeedback tools – Measure your muscle contractions and give real-time feedback via a smartphone app.

   • Vibrating devices – Some vibrate in response to muscle engagement or offer guided workouts.

3. App-Connected Devices:

   • These come with interactive training programs, games, or progress tracking via an app.

Benefits of Using a Kegel Exerciser:

• Improved bladder control (reduces leaks and urgency)

• Enhanced sexual pleasure and sensitivity

• Strengthened core and pelvic stability

• Postnatal recovery support

• Helpful for men with prostate issues or urinary incontinence

How to Use:

1. Insert (if using an internal device) or place as instructed.

2. Follow guided contractions—typically hold for 5 seconds, relax for 5 seconds.

3. Do about 3 sets of 10 reps daily.

4. Stay consistent for best results (4–6 weeks to start seeing improvements).
