All available treatments (including surgical and non surgical treatments) are thoroughly explained to each patient so she is able to chose the appropriate treatment that fits her way of life. Common Women's Health Conditions Women's Pelvic Health Women's pelvic health is a relatively new field in medicine that treats women with urinary incontinence and pelvic floor disorders. These disorders are remarkably common, but many women are reluctant to receive or ask for help because of the stigma associated with these conditions. Some of the common conditions that we treat include: Pelvic organ prolapse (cystocele, rectocele, uterine or vaginal prolapse) Urinary Incontinence Fecal incontinence Pelvic pain Interstitial Cystitis Problems following previous surgery (including removal of mesh) Kidney Problems The kidneys play key roles in body function, not only by filtering the blood and getting rid of waste products, but also by balancing levels of electrolyte levels in the body, controlling blood pressure, and stimulating the production of red blood cells. In 2001, of all new patients diagnosed with kidney failure in Canada , 55% were 65 and older. Men made up 58% of the cases, and are still the majority of CKD patients. However, in a five-year period there was a 23% increase in the number of men diagnosed with kidney failure, compared to a 45% increase in the number of women. Some of the common conditions that we treat include: Interstitial Cystitis Kidney Cancer Kidney Stones Treatment of Renal Cysts Genital Herpes Overactive Bladder Bladder Problems Lots of women -- regardless of age -- are secretly dealing with it. More than 13 million Americans have incontinence, and women are twice as likely to have it as men, according the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. About 25% to 45% of women suffer from urinary incontinence, defined as leakage at least once in the past year. The rates of urinary incontinence increase with age: 20%-30% of young women , 30%-40% of middle-aged women, and up to 50% of older women suffer from urinary incontinence.
