Common Urinary Issues

Interstitial Cystitis

Read More

Vulvodynia most commonly is described as burning, stinging, irritation, and rawness. Aching, soreness, throbbing, and swelling also may be felt. The entire vulva may be painful, or pain may be centered in a specific area. Symptoms of vulvodynia may be constant, or they may come and go. Symptoms can start and stop without warning, or they may occur only when the area is touched.

Stress Urinary Incontinence

Read More

Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is urine leakage with physical activity, such as exercise, or when coughing, laughing, or sneezing. It is a common problem in women. SUI can be treated with both non-surgical and surgical treatment methods.

Pelvic Pain

Chronic pelvic pain is a pain in the pelvic area that lasts for six months or longer. Chronic pain can come and go, or it can be constant. Sometimes chronic pelvic pain follows a regular cycle. For example, it may occur during . It also can occur only at certain times, such as before or after eating, while urinating, or during sex.

Pelvic Prolapse

Read More

Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) happens when one or more pelvic organs (the vagina, uterus, bladder, urethra, small intestine, and rectum) drop from their normal position. It’s caused by a weak pelvic floor, the collection of muscles, ligaments, and connective tissues that hold these organs in place.

When a pelvic organ drops, it may bulge into another organ. In some cases, the organ may protrude out of the vagina. Women may accidentally leak urine or bowel contents (stool), or their vagina may make noises during exercise or sex. These symptoms and others can be isolating. Some women don’t seek treatment until they start having severe bladder, bowel, or sexual function problems.

Repair and Surgery

Read More

Surgery may be an option for women who have not found relief with non-surgical treatments. There are two types of surgery: 1) surgery to repair the pelvic floor and 2) surgery to shorten, narrow, or close off the vagina.

Treatment options may include:

  • Laparoscopy
    Colporrhaphy
    Sacrocolpopexy
    Sacrohysteropexy
    Surgery using vaginally placed mesh

Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs)

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common infections. Many women get them at some point in their lives. Some women have repeat infections and may have them often. But most UTIs are not serious. These infections can be treated with antibiotics, and symptoms can usually be relieved quickly.

Urogynecological Problems: Incontinence and Weakend Pelvic Floor Muscles

Whether it’s a few drops of leaking urine or complete emptying of the bladder, incontinence is a bladder control issue that women are twice as likely to have as men. And by the time a woman has made an appointment to talk about what she’s dealing with, she has had enough.

Incontinence can be embarrassing, super annoying, and costly. But you don’t have to suffer in silence – there are many treatment options available.

The two most common types are stress incontinence and urgency incontinence.

Stress incontinence is triggered by a cough, sneeze, or physical exercise, and the result is leaking urine. Urgency incontinence is leaking after a sudden, strong urge to urinate that you cannot stop. If the patient has a combination of the two, we first target the one bothering her the most.

What are the surgical treatments for SUI?
Surgery improves SUI symptoms in most women. There are different types of surgery for SUI:

  • Injections
  • Urethral sling
  • Colposuspension

Urethral slings and colposuspension can be done through an incision (cut) in the abdomen, through the vagina, or with laparoscopy.

Injections into the tissues around the urethra do not need an incision. This may be an option for women who do not want a more invasive procedure. It is a minor procedure that can be done in an office.

If necessary, surgical procedures can be combined to give the best results. For example, an SUI procedure and a pelvic support procedure may be done to decrease the risk of developing SUI after the surgery.

Empower RF by InMode

Empower RF is a new safe and effective solution delivering life-changing technologies for women’s wellness. This innovative device is designed specifically to treat a broad range of conditions such as stress, urge, and mixed urinary incontinence, weak pelvic floor muscles, blood circulation, and pain relief.

VTone is a highly effective and non-invasive treatment that helps tone and train pelvic floor muscles. During a VTone treatment, an egg-shaped device, about the size of a tampon, is placed into the vaginal canal to trigger involuntary muscle contractions. These contractions tone and tighten the pelvic floor, particularly those muscle fibers weakened or overstretched during pregnancy and childbirth.

VTone is recommended for any woman who experiences urinary incontinence and wishes to avoid bladder mesh surgery. Women who want to strengthen their pelvic floor muscles for sexual enhancement would also benefit from this treatment.

VTone treatments a series of 6-8 treatments over three months. VTone is non-invasive procedure and is completed in 30 minutes. Most patients report increased urinary control, reduced bladder leakage, and improved sexual sensation. Results are cumulative, with most patients realizing optimal strengthening 1-2 weeks after their final treatment. Maintenance treatments are performed annually. VTone quickly restores patient confidence and quality of life, without surgery or downtime.
