Bladder Conditions We Treat
Urinary incontinence is the loss of bladder control ranging in severity from a little leaked urine when you cough or sneeze to experience the urge to pee so suddenly that you don’t have time to get to a toilet.
Overactive bladder (OAB) is a condition that causes you to pee more frequently, have uncontrollable urges to pee, experience incontinence and have to pee at night. It is estimated to affect more than 40% of women.
Painful urination, or dysuria, is the feeling of pain, discomfort or burning when peeing.
Hematuria, or blood in the urine, is a condition that occurs when the kidneys or other parts of the urinary tract let blood cells leak into urine. Blood in urine is not always visible to the naked eye and must sometimes be diagnosed by a urinalysis.
Prolapse of the bladder, also known as cystocele, occurs when the ligaments and muscles that hold up your bladder stretch or weaken. It can lead to difficulty urinating, urinary incontinence and pain when inserting a tampon or having sex.
Pelvic organ prolapse is a condition where weakened pelvic floor muscles cause one or more organs to sag. In severe cases, one or more of these organs can bulge into another organ or sag outside of your body.
