During anal I try to time squeezes with my boyfriend's thrusts but it's really hard to tell if what I'm doing is making it tighter or not. I got this to get a better understanding of what I'm doing. It totally works for anal and I am able to do all of the exercises just fine.

Overall I think this is a great product, seems well made, easy to clean, very easy to get started, the games are pretty enjoyable.

There are a couple issues with the product in general though: the low power Bluetooth sometimes disconnects with my phone less than a foot away, the app really should display current pressure level during trainings, the case easily opens while in a purse or bag, and a free play mode would be nice for the games instead of repeatedly doing short workouts.

I've known about the Elvie for a while now, having seen an article on a random website at some point in the past. I thought it was a great idea, but I'm wayyyyyy too cheap to spend $200 on something I could theoretically do without spending anything at all. So I went with out. Until about three weeks ago when I had a big coughing fit and had to change my clothes from the waist down. Being only 35, my future flashed before my eyes and I realized I had two choices: get motivated to strengthen my pelvic floor or buy stock in Depends. I'm glad I went with option 1.
The Elvie is easily one of the best things I've done for myself in a long time. I not only don't have an issue with bladder control, I've also found that sex is more enjoyable for both myself and my husband. The customizable workout schedule and reminder notifications are a nice touch. The storage container/charger is nice and discreet. It's comfortable to use and easy to clean.
Of course, few products are perfect. I have problems with the Bluetooth connection getting lost in the middle of an exercise. It would be nice if the app were more robust (i.e. there is information in the package brochure that could easily be added to the app). I'd love to see a sort of "free play" option where you could try out different muscle groups without being in an actual exercise. The ability to pick the exercises you wanted to do would also be cool.

I spent 6 months last year working with a pelvic floor therapist. I never realized that such a weakness existed, let alone could cause so many problems including urinary incontinence and loss of sexual stimulation. Whether hereditary or not it can be reversed.
After completing my rehab I continued to do my exercises but, because there was no way of measuring my strength areas and weak areas like in the office I wondered if I was doing them correctly and often enough.
Found Elvie on Amazon and after reading the fabulous reviews I decided to give it a try!
Wow! I have the results right on my phone. The exercises are fun and keep me motivated. Elvie is very comfortable too! It also gives me confidence that I'm doing the best I can for my body.
I recently visited my gynecologist and she was impressed with my results! She commented that not enough of her patients take this seriously and sadly go through their life with effects of a weak pelvic floor, some eventually need surgery. This is the answer! It's accurate, you can do it in the privacy of your own home on your schedule! In other countries there are classes immediately after you have a baby to help get you back in shape. I think it is over looked here. I'm 60 years old and wish Elvie was around and talked about when I had my child 25 years ago! YOU WON'T BE SORRY!

I've had this device for three years and it's still going strong. Original review from 2017... I've been using this device for about 7 weeks. So I've had to time to really see if it worked and what the results are with using it. I'm a mother of 4 having had 2 vaginal births and 2 csections. During my last pregnancy I developed Symphysis pubis dysfunction and my pelvic floor was severely weakened. After the pregnancy I could barely feel anything with penetrative sex among other issues like long term pelvic pain. I did a lot of physical therapy with internal work but it was hard to stick with the exercises at home when not with the therapist. Finally after years of just dealing with it I came across Elvie. I'm happy to say it has made a huge difference. After 7 weeks I would say things are 90 percent back to normal. I've just made it to the advanced workouts so I'm sure things will keep improving. I am so happy. I was single and the idea of having sex with a new partner with my issues was so anxiety inducing and I was afraid. It hurt my self confidence. I'm happy to say that I have a partner again and everything worked which is huge. This has helped me so much and given me back my love life. I wanted to write a detailed review on this issue because I could mostly find just info on incontinence. I wanted to let women know that this will help if you have sexual dysfunction from a weak pelvic floor.

Well first I'd like to acknowledge the bad reviewers. Y'all scared me honestly and I almost didn't buy this and I was like well there's a lot more positive than good reviews so let me just try it. It's a lot of money but with COVID I'm still not comfortable going back to therapy so this was my next best bet.

Connectivity: Elvie is very sensitive. I plugged her in over night because that five second thing didn't work for mine. Once it was morning I was able to connect her in 2 seconds and get started. I had to keep my phone on my upper thigh/hip area, she didn't like my phone in my mid area. It's super easy to reconnect and mine only disconnected when I was trying to look at the graph and my results. So having patience is key here.

Prompts: Elvie gives you shout outs and encouraging words. I remember reading somewhere that Elvie said good job to someone and they felt it wasn't a good job. Let's face it, we all are buying this to get our pelvic floor stronger. Personally, I need encouragement and was thankful after my first couple workouts at the honesty and accuracy. My pelvic floor has been less than 50% strong since I gave birth vaginally, last year, to my 9 lb son...who gave me fourth degree tear.

Exercises: they are challenging. I haven't mastered the pulse yet but I remember my therapist telling me that too. I like seeing on my phone how I need to relax. Elvie tells you to relax it just takes me a while. You can customize your workout days and times. It's only five minutes a day but I do it more often some days and would like to get to doing it twice daily each day. I've become lazy and discouraged and I think Elvie is really going to get me my motivation back.

Overall, it's super comfortable. I don't need the cover, she slid right in and sat there. I also do mine laying down because that's how pelvic floor therapy in person was for me.

I'm super excited to see myself get stronger over time. Thank you for creating this beautiful piece of technology.
