Elvie Trainer 12+

I’m 45 and my bladder control started to get worst once I turn 41 and for a few years I thought I would have to just except it but then I started looking around for something to help. I would 100% recommend this product. I used it the first couple of months 4/5 times a week and it takes about 2 months to feel the difference so be patient. I have found that you need to keep on using it regularly to feel the difference continue.

I was finding before I used it a bit of pee would come out if I needed the loo on the way to the bathroom I know can hold it in. If I sneeze/cough randomly a bit of pee sometimes come out still but most the time using the trainer I have got that back into control.

I’ve tried many ways to improve my stress incontinence over the last 5 years but they have all been lengthy exercises and not shows great results. I’ve been using this for 2 months, doing 3 quick 5 minute workouts per week and I’ve already seen a great difference. I’ve even been able to start running without any leaks.

Firstly I should say the app itself is well-built and is intuitive and looks great. It works brilliantly.

However, you MUST remember all your login details.

My phone deleted the app and when I tried to log back in, I have tried every email address I have and have received no password reset emails. Eventually it has said I have tried too many times and has locked me out to ‘try again later. This has now been days. I am stuck in a loop where nothing I do can recover the account.

Customer services have been less than helpful: initially got a cut and paste of the FAQs from the site (yes, I can read and had tried that, thanks) then another email confirming that one of the addresses I enquirer about had been used.

But this doesn’t help me for two reasons: a) I had asked for a password reset email for that account and received nothing (yes I checked my junk email folder) and b) I can’t now login at all as there have been ‘too many attempts’ - this is for an arbitrary and unspecified amount of time. This part of the elvie trainer app is fundamentally flawed, in my opinion.

So frustrating! So now I am faced with losing my progress and having to start again. But I will write down my email address and password this time!
