During childbirth, especially vaginal birth, the pelvic floor muscles stretch and tighten to accommodate the baby's passage through the birth canal. Vibration therapy can help re-strengthen those muscles and regenerate tissue.
  • Vibration has been shown to improve pelvic floor muscle weakness after childbirth.
  • Using a vibrator also helps with urinary continence by strengthening the pelvic muscles.

Before they became a billion-dollar industry, vibrators were invented as medical devices to treat female hysteria, a general term for anxiety, irritability, and sexual frustration.

But today, sex toys are not just a tool for personal pleasure, they offer medical benefits, according to some doctors.

Gynecologists have found that using a vibrator several times a week can help relieve “leakage” associated with incontinence, which affects one in three American women who have had a vaginal birth.

Before they were a multibillion-dollar industry, vibrators were used as medical devices to treat female “hysteria,” a general term for a woman’s anxiety, irritability, and/or sexual frustration.

Urinary incontinence is a common symptom in postpartum women, due to the weakening of the pelvic floor muscles as the baby moves through the vaginal canal.

This affects the muscles that control the bladder, increasing the feeling of “urgency” when you need to go to the bathroom.

Childbirth can cause varying degrees of trauma and damage to the muscles and tissues of the pelvic floor.

And gynecologists now say that for women who experience pelvic floor weakness or prolapse (a condition in which the pelvic organs sink and can protrude into the vagina) a vibrator can help.

Studies suggest that up to a third of women who have given birth will suffer a prolapse at some point, and around one in 10 will need an operation to fix the problem.

Dr. Alexandra Dubinskaya, a gynecologist at Cedars-Sinai Marina del Rey Hospital, performed a comprehensive analysis of studies on the benefits of vibrators for female sexual health.

She said Yahoo: ‘Vibrator use has a positive effect on multiple domains of the female sexual response cycle, such as a decrease in time to reach an orgasm, facilitating multiple orgasms, and improving sex-related distress.

“In addition, the use of vibrators improves urinary incontinence and pelvic floor muscle strength, as well as vulvar pain.”

Vibration stimulates the pelvic floor muscles and activates them, improving tone and strength.

Vibration also increases blood flow to the pelvic floor muscles, which promotes postpartum recovery and helps repair tissue.

Improved muscle tone can also strengthen pelvic organ support and improve bladder and bowel control.

Dr. Dubinskaya saying: ‘We know we need to exercise all parts of our body and we all hear that we shouldn’t skip “leg day,” but we regularly skip “pelvic floor day.”

“Exercising the pelvic floor muscles can be challenging and that’s why vibrators could be a really good modality for massaging the muscles and increasing blood flow to the area.”
