    Introduction: the training of pelvic floor muscles is a recommended strategy to improve the quality of life in postpartum women, addressing common issues such as urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse. This systematic review evaluated the effectiveness of various interventions, including supervised programs, biofeedback, electrical stimulation, and core stabilization exercises. Method: thirteen studies were identified through searches in PubMed, Cochrane, and Google Scholar. Results: the results indicated that supervised interventions, especially those supported by technologies like mobile applications and feedback devices, show significant improvements in muscle strength, symptom reduction, and quality of life, outperforming unsupervised methods. However, some studies did not find significant differences in aspects such as pain relief or prolapse recovery, highlighting the importance of personalizing protocols. Additionally, variability in study designs and methodologies limits the generalization of the findings. Conclusions: supervised pelvic floor training, complemented by innovative technologies, is an effective tool for postpartum rehabilitation. However, it is necessary to standardize protocols and evaluate long-term effects to optimize future interventions.
