Pelvic organ prolapse
Pelvic organ prolapse
Pelvic organ prolapse is when 1 or more of the organs in the pelvis slip down from their normal position and bulge into the vagina. It can be the womb (uterus), bowel, bladder or top of the vagina. A prolapse is not life threatening, but it can cause pain and discomfort.
Overactive bladder (Botox and sacroneuromodulation)
Overactive bladder, also called OAB, causes a frequent and sudden urge to urinate that may be difficult to control. You may feel like you need to pass urine many times during the day and night, and may also experience unintentional loss of urine (urgency incontinence).
Neurogenic bladder in MS patients
The demyelination of MS interferes with signals between the bladder, the spinal cord, and brain, causing urination to become less controlled. Dysfunction may occur in the detrusor, external sphincter, or in the coordination of their functions.
Urinary and Fecal incontinence
Urinary incontinence is simply loss of bladder control, ranging in severity from occasional leakage while coughing or sneezing to a sudden urge to urinate that leaves you no time to reach a toilet. Fecal incontinence is the failure to control bowel movements, resulting in stool leakage from the rectum.
Pelvic pain and pain with intercourse
Women can experience pain during or after sex, either in the vagina or deeper in the pelvis. Pain in the vagina could be caused by: an infection – thrush or a sexually transmitted infection (STI), such as chlamydia, gonorrhoea or genital herpes. the menopause – changing hormone levels can make your vagina dry.
Recurrent urinary tract infections
Women can experience pain during or after sex, either in the vagina or deeper in the pelvis. Pain in the vagina could be caused by: an infection – thrush or a sexually transmitted infection (STI), such as chlamydia, gonorrhoea or genital herpes. the menopause – changing hormone levels can make your vagina dry.
Vaginal Fistula
Most vaginal fistulas require surgery to fix the opening. For a fistula related to inflammatory bowel disease or an infection, you’ll need to have that condition treated before you can have surgery. Depending on where the fistula is, your doctor can do the surgery through the vagina or the abdomen.
