Brief Summary: Among women, stress urinary incontinence is the most common form. Stress urine incontinence defines as involuntary leakage from the urethra that occurs synchronously with exertion/effort, sneezing, or coughing. Women face stress incontinence which is often go unsupported due to lack of awareness and societal shame. Neuromuscular electrical stimulation is applied in an effort to re-establish urinary continence mechanisms by strengthening the pelvic floor muscles, which are used when stimulation of the pudendal nerve results in a direct contraction of the pelvic floor muscles. Exercises for the pelvic floor muscles are used to treat stress urine incontinence because these muscles maintain the pelvic organs and aid in the urethral sphincterâ€™s closure mechanism. This study includes the combined treatment of neuromuscular electrical stimulation and pelvic floor strengthening exercises.
