ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at a technique called Postisometric Relaxation to see if it can help women who have trouble with bowel movements, specifically those diagnosed with a condition known as dyssynergic defecation. This condition can cause symptoms like constipation, pain during bowel movements, and a feeling of not fully emptying the bowels. The study aims to find out if this technique can improve the severity of constipation, enhance quality of life, reduce anal pain, and improve muscle function and sexual health in these patients.

To participate in the trial, women need to be between 18 and 55 years old and must have been diagnosed with dyssynergic defecation by a doctor. They should not be using laxatives or have had certain medical treatments or surgeries recently. The trial is not yet recruiting, but once it starts, participants can expect to learn about the Postisometric Relaxation technique and how it might help with their symptoms. This approach is considered promising because it is easy to access and doesn't require special equipment.
