Help to locate the
Pelvic Muscle. One approach is to sit on the toilet
and start to urinate. Try to stop 
the
flow of urine midstream by contracting your pelvic
floor muscles. Repeat this action several times until
you become familiar with the feel of contracting the
correct group of muscles. Do not contract your abdominal,
thigh, or butt ox muscles while performing the exercise.
Another
approach to help you identify the correct pelvic muscles
group is to insert a finger into the vagina. You should
then try to tighten the muscles around your finger
as if holding back urine. The abdominal and thigh
muscles should remain relaxed. Women may also strengthen
these muscles by using a Coming Soon, which is a resistance
device that is inserted into the vagina. The women
should then try to contract the pelvic floor muscles
in an effort to hold the device closed for 10 seconds
and then relax, doing this 5 to 10 minutes a day,
three to five times a week.
