Some women have issues with the 'integrity' of their vaginal muscles after giving birth, or due to age, weight, or some other medical conditions, the results of which can range from embarrassing  to discomfort, to serious health complications. Some of the current solutions like the vaginal mesh have caused major problems (you may have seen the ambulance chasers on tv lately). So the idea of strengthening the vaginal muscles through exercise isn't really that crazy since it's relatively non-invasive. I know, women sticking that up the vajayjay seems invasive, but I mean relative to surgery or permanent device implantation. As far as the anal usage of the device, I'm gonna leave that one alone :) While I’m not a doc, my wife is, and there’s something to this.
