Effects of Pelvic Floor Training in Male Chronic Pelvic Pain, Correlation Between Subjective and Objective Outcomes

At baseline all included study subjects will fill in a validated symptom score, the National Institute of Health - Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index (NIH-CPSI) and have an assessment of their pelvic floor muscles and undergo a urodynamic evaluation. The intervention group will perform short daily session of pelvic floor muscle training at home during six months in combination with four bio-feedback sessions during the first months. The study subjects will receive an individual instruction based on the pelvic floor assessment from the baseline visit. The study subjects will report their training in a digital diary. A reevaluation will be done at three, six and twelve months. At six and 12 months repeating the baseline tests. At three months a renewed assessment of muscle function and the NIH-CPSI questionnaire. The control group will be instructed not to engage in any new treatment for their chronic pelvic pain during the study period. After the six months evaluation all participants in the control group will be offered to be enrolled in the treatment group, with the same set-up and follow-up as the treatment group.
