I have heard conflicting reports on when to start kegel exercises. Do you start before surgery or after surgery?

before--and your surgeon or someone in his/her office should be guiding you in this--ask!

Definitely before, as soon as possible before. My surgeon sent me to a physical therapist a few weeks before surgery, who then also gave me a schedule of how soon to start back after surgery.

Not what you're looking for?
