When to Visit a Urogynecologist:
If you’ve noticed any changes in bladder or bowel control, discomfort during sex, or persistent pelvic pain, it is time to consult a urogynecologist. A urogynecologist understands how life events and natural aging can lead to pelvic floor problems and can help find the right treatment plan to improve your quality of life.
Life events such as pregnancy and childbirth, for example, can put a lot of strain on your pelvic floor, leading to conditions like incontinence or pelvic organ prolapse. As you age, hormonal changes during menopause can also weaken the pelvic area, resulting in issues like urinary urgency or discomfort. Even everyday activities, like heavy lifting or regular exercise, can cause strain over time that affects your pelvic health and may require a urogynecologist to treat.
