Overview
Urogynecology is a subspecialty that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of urinary incontinence and pelvic floor disorders in women. These problems are especially common in women who have given birth and are in menopause.
Urinary incontinence is an important problem that negatively affects social life. There are different types such as stress incontinence, urge incontinence, and mixed incontinence, and the treatment approach for each is different.
As a result of weakening of the pelvic floor muscles, bladder, uterus, or rectal prolapse may develop. These conditions are addressed with a wide range of treatments from conservative methods to surgery.
Modern treatment options include pelvic floor exercises, vaginal pessary application, laser treatment, and minimally invasive surgical methods.
