A novel approach to management of nocturia in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia

and incorrect technique while the women in the control group were doing regular correct PFMT. Moreover, longterm follow-up was not the primary goal at the start of the study; however, patients when randomly contacted after a long time are usually associated with bias. With an overall response rate of 71%, only 57% of the women in the PFMT group and 66% of the women in the control group responded, which could add to this bias.
