Female Urology

Female urology addresses urological conditions unique to women, focusing on disorders of the urinary tract and pelvic floor. Common issues include urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, recurrent urinary tract infections, and interstitial cystitis. Management strategies are diverse, ranging from conservative treatments like pelvic floor exercises, bladder training, and pharmacotherapy to more advanced interventions. Surgical options include midurethral sling procedures for stress urinary incontinence, cystocele and rectocele repairs for pelvic organ prolapse, and bladder instillations or neuromodulation for chronic bladder pain and urgency. Hormonal therapies may also be employed to address atrophic changes in the urinary and genital tracts due to menopause. A multidisciplinary approach, often involving urologists, gynecologists, and physical therapists, is crucial for comprehensive care. Individualized treatment plans are developed based on the severity of symptoms, the underlying cause, and the patientโ€™s overall health and preferences, aiming to improve urinary function, pelvic support, and quality of life. Regular follow-up is essential to monitor treatment efficacy and adjust the management plan as needed.
