PelviCR
Muscle function is one part of the picture
Pelvic muscles contribute to sexual responses, and their coordination may be relevant. This does not mean that a stronger contraction automatically creates more pleasure.
Comfort, tissues, emotions and context also matter. A useful goal starts with what concerns you, without comparing your experience with a performance expectation.
When there is pain
Discomfort during or after sex deserves assessment. It is not advisable to train through pain or assume strengthening will resolve it.
For the difference between strength and muscle tension, read tight pelvic floor. If discomfort occurs alongside dryness or changes at this life stage, read menopause and the pelvic floor.
Desire and erections are not measures of strength
Libido is not a measure of pelvic floor condition. In men, erection difficulties may have vascular, neurological, hormonal or medication-related causes; stress can also play a part. Persistent difficulties need a consultation.
Around menopause, vaginal dryness and discomfort may require specific care. Read more in menopause and the pelvic floor.
What can be said about PelviX
The training materials describe a programme focused on areas involved in sexual function. That does not justify guaranteeing orgasms, increased libido or restored erections. If the equipment is considered, the muscular goal needs defining and the application must be appropriate for the person.
See the PelviX overview for its characteristics.
Frequently asked questions
Does PelviX guarantee better orgasms?
No. Equipment cannot guarantee a sexual response.
Will Kegel exercises resolve intimate pain?
Not necessarily. The cause needs assessing before contractions are prescribed.
