Introduction: Puerperium is the period between the expulsion of the placenta and the return to mother's pre-pregnancy physiological condition. Among the complaints observed in this period, the presence of urinary incontinence (UI), constipation and rectus abdominis diastasis (DRA) can be highlighted, with few studies evaluating interventions to treat these dysfunctions. Objective: To observe the effects of a Ginástica Feminina program on the main complaints reported by postpartum women. Material and method: Postpartum women up to 6 months postpartum were included, divided into control and intervention groups, evaluated using a biopsychosocial questionnaire and the validated ICIQ-SF questionnaire for voiding symptoms, performed remotely via Google Forms. Women also performed the diastasis self-test, guided by an educational video. The intervention group participated asynchronously in five weekly sessions of exercises belonging to the Ginástica Feminina method. The control group received no intervention. After five weeks, both groups were reassessed. Results: 10 postpartum women were evaluated, divided into two groups. Although no statistically significant values were found, a decrease in the ICIQ-SF score was observed, suggesting improvement in urinary symptoms, significant improvement in body satisfaction and written reports associated with an increase in quality of life for the intervention group. Conclusion: a Women's Gymnastics program can be effective to improve well-being, self-esteem and urinary symptoms of women in the postpartum period. Future studies with larger samples are needed to confirm the results found
