Overview
Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of pelvic floor muscle exercises on primary post-micturition dribbling (PMD) in male patients aged 18 to 40 years. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Does pelvic floor muscle training reduce the severity and frequency of PMD as measured by the Hallym Post-Micturition Dribble Questionnaire (HPMDQ)?
- Does pelvic floor muscle training reduce the amount of post-void residual urine as measured by a post-voiding pad test?
Researchers will compare patients undergoing pelvic floor muscle training (Group A) with those performing non-targeted exercises (Group B) to see if targeted pelvic floor training is more effective in managing PMD symptoms and reducing urine leakage.
Participants will:
- Undergo random assignment to either pelvic floor muscle training or non-targeted exercise for 12 weeks
- Complete baseline and follow-up assessments including:
- Medical history and physical exam
- Urine analysis and post-void residual measurement
- International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS)
- Post-voiding pad test
- Hallym Post-Micturition Dribble Questionnaire (HPMDQ)
