Another incontinence questions, looking for similar experiences

You can overdo Kegel exercises. I was in a meeting yesterday and one guy was saying he does 80 of them every day. Another guy said he went to a physical therapist that specializes in incontinence problems and they told them don’t do too many, Two or three sets every day is all you should do otherwise you tire out the muscle.
Just something to think about.

@jeffmarc This happened to us too - 7 weeks out from RP. He is already down from 4 pads a day to 2 pads a day- but standing up - !!!! Still a problem.
He finally saw a specialist last week who told him that he was doing WAY too many kegels (also not isolating the muscles correctly).
Time will tell - it is hard not to push for faster recovery - Good luck to all dealing with this.
