A number of treatments and procedures exist to treat many of the diseases or disorders. Before recommending specific treatments, we may conduct diagnostic tests.

Diagnostic Tests, Procedures, and Treatments

Diagnostic Tests
  • Cystourethroscopy
  • Urodynamic Testing
Behavior and Lifestyle Modifications
The following services empower patients to take control of their pelvic health by making changes to their diet, lifestyle habits and exercise routines. After a diagnosis we will review techniques and best practices related to each treatment. Patients’ willingness and ability to make these changes are integral to their long-term success.
  • Pelvic floor re-education
  • Behavioral modification, including kegel exercises
  • Dietary modifications
  • Bladder training

Nonsurgical pelvic floor disorder treatments may include medication, electrical stimulation or devices to help improve incontinence or prolapse symptoms. These procedures may be the best next steps when lifestyle modifications are not enough.
  • Medical management
  • Pelvic floor physical therapy
  • Urethral bulking (injections to improve stress incontinence)
  • Third line therapy for overactive bladder and urinary urge incontinence including:
    • Intradetrusor botox therapy for overactive bladder
