Brief Summary: This study evaluates whether surface perineal stimulation is as effective as anal stimulation in reducing urinary incontinence secondary to radical prostatectomy.

Half of participants will receive a treatment with surface perineal stimulation, while the other half will receive a treatment with anal stimulation.
Detailed Description: Pelvic floor muscle training is the most common non-invasive intervention for urinary incontinence secondary to radical prostatectomy. Perineal stimulation has a significant positive impact on the early recovery of urinary continence after this intervention.

The perineal stimulation can be applied with surface electrodes or with an intra-cavitary probe placed in the anus. The two techniques are commonly used. Each techniques stimulates different anatomical points of perineum, and it is a question if both have the same effectiveness or, one of the two techniques has greater effect than the other.
