Published scientific literature.
A study by Fousek and colleagues, published in the British Journal of Midwifery, investigated antenatal pelvic floor training with a vaginal balloon device in Czech women.
Rather than turning an individual research result into a product promise, we invite readers to explore the original publication, including the methods, measured outcomes, findings and limitations.

Published research is valuable because it enables careful discussion. A study can investigate a specific group and set of outcomes without proving that every individual will experience the same result. Results may differ across outcomes, and limitations matter.
When you read the paper, consider the study design, number of participants, comparison groups and which outcomes did or did not show differences. This is a more informative way to understand research than relying on a single promotional statistic.
