Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to compare the ultrasound imaging of core muscles activity in multiparous women with vaginal laxity versus normal controls.


Clinical Trial Description

Vaginal laxity is characterized by the loss of elasticity in the vaginal structure and vaginal looseness, which leads to symptoms including sexual dysfunction, dyspareunia, chronic pelvic pain, and urinary incontinence. It is a symptom of pelvic floor dysfunction. Its mechanisms are not well understood and it is usually worse in women with multiparity. Since the pelvic floor muscles (PFMs) are one of the core muscles that play a critical role in lumbopelvic stability, their impairment may affect the lumbopelvic area and the activity of other core muscles, like the transverse abdominis, lumbar multifidus, and diaphragm. Therefore, this study aims to compare the ultrasound imaging of core muscles activity in multiparous women with vaginal laxity versus normal controls. ;
