Introduction: Throughout the life of the woman, several events can promote structural and functional changes in the muscles of the pelvic floor. It is known that gestation and parturition modify the anatomy and physiology of the components of the pelvic floor and may favor the appearance of pelvic floor dysfunctions. The training of the MAP during the gestation period can prevent and cure the muscular involvement. However, the functional evaluation of this region is difficult due to the presence of loach. Objective: To evaluate the acute effect of exercises on pelvic floor muscles by infrared thermography.
