Antenatal pelvic floor muscle training vs control

Faecal incontinence‐specific quality of life · pregnant women, some of who were incontinent symptoms and some who were not when randomised

Postnatal pelvic floor muscle training vs control

Faecal incontinence late postnatal period (> 6‐12 months) · postnatal women who were incontinent when randomised

It is very uncertain whether postnatal pelvic floor muscle training changes faecal incontinence late postnatal period(> 6 to 12 months) compared with control (very low certainty).
