Yes, Men Have a Pelvic Floor Too — And It’s Time We Talked About It
Pelvic floor problems aren’t just a women’s issue — yet for far too long, men have been left out of the conversation. Many simply put up with leaks, urgency, and frequent toilet trips, not realising there’s something they can do about it. But now, thanks to expert guidance from Dr Pauline Chiarelli and innovative solutions like the Kegel8 V For Men, help is at hand.
Dr Chiarelli’s DVD – Pelvic Floor Exercises for Men – is a down-to-earth, practical resource that helps men take control of their pelvic health. Whether you’re dealing with bladder leaks after surgery, prostate treatment, or just noticing some changes with age, this DVD gives you honest, easy-to-follow advice to strengthen your pelvic floor and improve bladder control.
Why Pelvic Floor Health Matters for Men
Bladder leaks can happen for a number of reasons: prostate surgery or radiotherapy, certain medications, chronic constipation or diarrhoea, or simply the natural aging process where muscles weaken over time. While it’s common in men over 60, it might surprise you to learn that 1 in 10 men under 60 also experience bladder problems – they just don’t tend to talk about it.
Leaks can show up in different ways – from small dribbles if the bladder doesn’t fully empty, to feeling the urgent need to go all the time. But these symptoms don’t have to be a ‘new normal’.
The Good News: You Can Strengthen Your Pelvic Floor
The pelvic floor muscles support the bladder and are involved in all the mechanisms that control it – so keeping these muscles strong is key to avoiding leaks. Many women are told to “do your kegels”, but men often aren’t shown how, or even told they have a pelvic floor!
That’s where this DVD really shines. Dr Chiarelli explains how to find and activate these muscles, how to tell if you’re doing the exercises correctly, and how to build them into your everyday life.
Tip: When you contract your pelvic floor muscles, you’ll see the tip of the penis lift and the scrotum retract – a visual cue that helps you track your progress and find your personal baseline.
From there, you can work on holding your squeeze for longer and increasing your repetitions. This simple daily habit can make a big difference.
Looking for Faster Results?
If you’ve had prostate surgery or are struggling to get your pelvic floor working again, the Kegel8 V For Men can help. This powerful pelvic floor exerciser does the hard work for you, delivering targeted muscle stimulation to strengthen the pelvic floor quickly and effectively.
