Urogynecology and pelvic reconstructive surgery focus on disorders of the pelvic floor, including urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse (such as prolapse of the uterus, bladder, and vaginal walls), fecal or gas incontinence, and related sexual dysfunctions.
Conditions like uterine prolapse and urinary incontinence can significantly impair a woman’s quality of life and limit her social participation. Today, these issues affect approximately one in every eight to nine women, to varying degrees.
Fortunately, with the advancement of surgical techniques, these problems can now often be treated successfully through minimally invasive and highly effective procedures — offering lasting relief with minimal discomfort.
