According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the adult overweight rate in 2014 reached 20%, with the highest prevalence among women. In addition to metabolic diseases, obesity can cause musculoskeletal disorders, including pelvic floor muscle (PFM) disorders and urinary incontinence (UI) is the most prevalent one.
