Conditions

Pelvic Floor, Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation

Interventions

Twelve volunteers from the control group (ETCC Sham) and 12 volunteers from the experimental group (active ETCC) will participate in this study. Transcranial Current Stimulation will be performed with
Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) (multidimensional sexual function scale that assesses desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm, satisfaction and pain)
perineometer biofeedback (objective assessment of the musculature of women with pelvic floor morbidity)
