About Urogynecology
Urogynecology is a relatively new sub-specialty within obstetrics and gynecology, dedicated to the care of women with disorders of the pelvic floor. This area consists of the muscles, ligaments, connective tissues and nerves that support the rectum, uterus, vagina and bladder.
How do I know if I should see a urogynecologist?
If you are experiencing prolapse or have had problems with emptying disorders, incontinence and pelvic pain or discomfort, you might benefit from a consultation with Presbyterian Urogynecology.
What are pelvic floor disorders, and who is at risk?
Damage to the pelvic floor organs, tissues and muscles can occur from childbirth, obesity, chronic coughing, heavy lifting, disease or genetic predisposition.
