What this trial studies

The GYVE study tests an online program designed for individuals who have had breast or gynecologic cancer and are facing pelvic health issues such as urinary incontinence and sexual pain. This 12-week program includes weekly online group sessions led by a physiotherapist, focusing on pelvic floor muscle training, hydration, diet, and pain management. The study aims to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the program while exploring its preliminary effectiveness in reducing urogenital impairments. Participants will be recruited from Quebec and Edmonton, with the goal of providing valuable insights into the program's impact on quality of life for cancer survivors.
