AbstractMany researches have proved scientifically that the vaginal delivery is the main cause of the pelvic floor dysfunction, swing to the mechanical stress supported by the conjunctive, muscle and neurological tissue. This dysfunction may cause urinary, anorectal incontinence, constipation or pelvic prolapse to a greater or to a lesser degree. The elective caesarean reduce the risk of incontinence compared to the vaginal delivery, but pregnancy itself is considered us a risk factor because of the hormonal and mechanical modificationsSince caesarean is not the best solutions to prevent these dysfunctions, we consider that ther must be programs to prevent urinary incontinence, anorectal incontinence and prolapses problems during pregnancy, delivery and specially the postpartum period. To prevent all these dysfunctions, there must be programs about exercises for the pelvic floor muscles during pregnancy and postpartum period. Besides, in the postpartum period we need to take greater care over the hipopressive abdominal exercises designed by Caufriez
