Urogynecology

What is Urogynecology?

Urogynecology is a specialized field of medicine that focuses on treating women's pelvic floor disorders and related conditions. This medical subspecialty combines expertise in gynecology and urology to address complex health issues that can significantly impact a woman's quality of life. These conditions often affect the pelvic organs, including the bladder, uterus, vagina, and rectum.

Common Conditions We Treat

At Wake Women's Health, our expert urogynecologists provide comprehensive care for a wide range of pelvic floor disorders, including:

Urinary Incontinence

We treat both stress incontinence (leakage during physical activity) and urge incontinence (sudden, strong urges to urinate). Our specialists understand that these conditions can be embarrassing to discuss and ensure a comfortable, confidential environment for all patients.

Pelvic Organ Prolapse

When pelvic organs drop from their normal position, it can cause discomfort and other symptoms. Our team offers both surgical and non-surgical treatment options tailored to each patient's specific needs and circumstances.
