Objective of the study is to explore effect of combining transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation with exercise on high post-void residual urine volume in post-menopausal women. The main question to be answered by this study:
Does transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation technique combined with exercise have effect on high post-void residual urine in post-menopausal women? Researchers will compare 2 groups of 60 post-menopausal women. Group A participants will attend 12-week physiotherapy sessions composed of transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation with exercise program and advice. While, control participants will take the same advice and routine care as group A participants.

A 6 months comparative randomized clinical trial composing of 2 groups of 60 post-menopausal women. Group A participants attended 12-week physiotherapy sessions composed of transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation with pelvic floor, behavioral bladder exercises and advice. Whereas, control participants were included in group B, who took the same advice as group A as well as performed routine pelvic floor strengthening exercises at home.
