Abstract
The efficiency of pelvic muscle exercises combined with biofeedback in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence was accessed in 39 women. The duration of treatment was 3 months. 11 (28.2 %) of women after treatment were complete free from the symptoms of stress urinary incontinence, and 20 (51.3%) — had significant decrease in the severity of symptoms. The positive effect was absent in 8 (20.5%) patients, 7 of them had stress urinary incontinence secondary to urethral sphincter deficiency
