Urology for Women

Urinary tract infections are one of the most common reasons women need urology. Women with these infections, which affect the bladder, kidneys, or urethra, can experience burning during urination, frequent trips to the bathroom, and lower abdominal pain. While antibiotics are typically used to treat urinary tract infections, we also focus on identifying underlying issues that may contribute to recurrent infections and providing long-term solutions.

Urinary incontinence, or the loss of bladder control, affects millions of women worldwide. Whether it’s stress incontinence, where activities like coughing or sneezing cause leakage, or urge incontinence, where a sudden, intense need to urinate leads to accidents, this condition can be disruptive. We offer treatments ranging from lifestyle adjustments and pelvic floor exercises to surgical options for more severe cases. It’s important to know you’re not alone — seeking care from a urologist for women can make a difference — and we are here for you.

An overactive bladder is characterized by the frequent and urgent need to urinate, which may interrupt daily life. This condition often causes frequent urination both during the day and at night (nocturia), along with a strong sense of urgency. Through medication, behavioral therapies, and sometimes surgical intervention, our urologists for females can help manage OAB so you can regain control.

Interstitial cystitis, also known as painful bladder syndrome, is a chronic condition causing pelvic pain, bladder pressure, and frequent urination. This condition can be particularly challenging, but our women’s urology team uses a multi-faceted approach to treatment, combining medication, physical therapy, and lifestyle changes to help relieve discomfort and improve daily function.

Pelvic organ prolapse occurs when the muscles and tissues supporting the pelvic organs weaken, allowing them to drop or press into the vaginal area. This can lead to symptoms like pressure, discomfort, or even visible bulging. Urology for women encompasses various treatments for POP, including non-invasive therapies or surgical repair, depending on the severity of the prolapse. Our team is skilled in conservative and surgical approaches to help restore your comfort and quality of life.

Female sexual dysfunction is more common than many realize, yet it often goes untreated due to the sensitive nature of the symptoms. Whether it’s dyspareunia (painful sexual intercourse), a lack of sexual desire, or difficulty achieving orgasm, these issues can be distressing. We can help address these symptoms with everything from hormonal therapies to non-surgical interventions. Regardless of your situation, there are many solutions available.

Kidney stones are hard deposits of minerals and salts that can form in the kidneys, causing severe pain, blood in the urine, and nausea. They are a common issue in urology for women. They can be treated with various techniques depending on the size and location of the stones, including medication, shock wave therapy, or surgery.
