The strain of pregnancy, the effort of childbirth, and the jarring of strenuous exercise. The trauma of gynecologic surgeries like hysterectomies. The result? All of these stresses, accumulated over the years, can weaken the natural support structure of a woman’s pelvis, causing problems such as vaginal prolapse, chronic constipation and urinary incontinence. Progressive treatments are available by Hanover Hospital and Mountain View OB/GYN, offering the newest in minimally invasive urogynecologic treatments, including:
InterStim - for women with an overactive bladder which causes the “gotta-go-again-and-again feeling.” For about a third of them, urinary urgency and frequency come with the even more embarrassing and disruptive symptom of leaks, called incontinence.
Female Pelvic Organ Prolapse Treatment - to treat the weakened natural support structure of the pelvis which cause vaginal prolapse, chronic constipation and urinary incontinence. New mesh technology is used to support damaged tissue. The results are much better than prior repair techniques.
Cystometric Studies - to evaluate the bladder, to determine what is causing the voiding problem.
Sling procedures - for stress urinary incontinence (losing urine when coughing, sneezing or jumping). This can be caused by having poor muscle tone or torn support between the bladder and the urethra. A sling is placed under the urethra to help close the valve and stop the flow of urine. Physical therapy can help improve vaginal muscle tone to stop incontinence.
Endometrial Ablation – for excessive and abnormal bleeding between menses.
Essure – tubal ligation performed through a hysteroscope, with a small occlusive device placed in both tubes, which can be done with minimal anesthesia.
