Lifestyle and home remedies
By Mayo Clinic staffKegel exercises, which are designed to strengthen your pelvic floor muscles, can help prevent an enterocele. They won't, however, cure one. You can do these exercises almost anytime — while driving, watching television or sitting at your desk.
To perform Kegel exercises:
- Pull in your pelvic floor muscles, which are the muscles you use to stop urinating.
- Hold for a count of five, and then relax for a count of five.
- Work up to 10 to 15 repetitions, and eventually 30 repetitions, if possible.
- Repeat at least three times a day.
