Urinary Incontinence

Urinary incontinence is the loss of bladder control, and while it can be common and embarrassing, it’s not a normal part of aging. When UI begins to affect your daily life, it’s time to take the necessary steps to improve your health.

Symptoms of Urinary Incontinence:

• Urine leakage caused by laughing, coughing, sneezing, or physical activities.
• Sudden urge to urinate with urinary leakage following.
• Small or frequent leakage of urine.
• Leakage caused by the inability to reach the restroom in time.

Pelvic Organ Prolapse

Pelvic Organ Prolapse occurs by weakened muscles, ligaments, and connective tissues, allowing an organ (or many at once) to fall through the pelvis. This can produce embarrassing, and more so, uncomfortable symptoms.

Symptoms of Pelvic Organ Prolapse:

• Pressure in the lower abdomen.
• Pain or feeling of intense pressure with intercourse.
• A bulge or the feeling of something falling out (that you can see or feel) in your vaginal area.
• A bulge or the feeling of something falling out of the rectum after a bowel movement.

Endometriosis

Endometriosis is a tricky condition because the symptoms often do not match the severity of
the disease. For many women who do experience pelvic pain, a diagnosis is often delayed because they do not realize that the pain is abnormal.

Symptoms of Endometriosis:

• Pain that resembles severe menstrual cramps in the abdomen and/or lower back.
• Heavy menstrual flow.
• Painful urination or bowel movements during periods.
• Pain during intercourse.
• Infertility.
