Is voluntary pelvic floor muscles contraction important for sexual function in women with pelvic floor disorders?

abstract：AIMS:The use of botulinum toxin A (BoNT/A) is commonplace now in the management of refractory overactive bladder and neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO). Despite one formulation now having a license, the full mechanism of action is not fully understood. Furthermore practice varies worldwide in the way the toxin is d...
