Understanding UroGynecology

Does this sound like you?

One minute you are out with friends enjoying yourself. Someone cracks a joke, you laugh, and the next minute you are making excuses to get home and change because you unexpectedly leaked urine.

Or perhaps you have similar symptoms such as sudden, uncontrollable urges to urinate immediately and can’t make it to the restroom. Or a feeling of heaviness in your pelvis. Or pain during intercourse.

If you experience one or more of these symptoms, you may have a condition called Urinary Incontinence or Pelvic Prolapse, or you may have both. But don’t be alarmed because these conditions are more common than you think, and very treatable.
