Resumen
Objetivo: Analizar las estrategias educativas y conductuales relacionadas con el suelo pélvico en la promoción de la salud de las mujeres posmenopáusicas. Métodos: Se realizó una revisión de la literatura en bases de datos científicas, incluyendo estudios publicados entre 2016 y 2026. Se utilizó la estrategia PICo y descriptores relacionados con la posmenopausia, el suelo pélvico y la educación para la salud. Se incluyeron estudios primarios disponibles en texto completo que abordaran intervenciones educativas, conductuales y entrenamiento de los músculos del suelo pélvico en esta población. Resultados: Se analizaron nueve estudios. El entrenamiento de los músculos del suelo pélvico se destacó como una intervención central, con efectos positivos en la reducción de la incontinencia urinaria, la mejora de la función sexual y el aumento de la fuerza muscular. Las estrategias educativas estructuradas, incluidos talleres, intervenciones virtuales y orientaciones anatómicas, asociadas o no con tecnologías en salud, demostraron potencial para ampliar la alfabetización en salud, fortalecer el autocuidado y favorecer la adherencia y la continuidad de la atención. Consideraciones finales: Las estrategias educativas y conductuales relacionadas con el suelo pélvico son intervenciones prometedoras, especialmente cuando se combinan con el entrenamiento supervisado de los músculos del suelo pélvico y tecnologías en salud.
