The name of a
pelvic floor muscle and exercise, named after Dr. Kegel who discovered the exercise. These muscles are attached to the pelvic bone and act like a
hammock, holding in your pelvic organs. A common function of these muscles is stopping and starting the flow of urine.
In men, the benefits of Kegel exercises include increased ejaculatory control. In women, a strong Kegel muscle can aid in efficient
child birth and gives the vagina a better "grip".
