Urogynecology Care in South Mississippi
PELVIC FLOOR, BLADDER & BOWEL CARE
Urogynecology is a specialized area of women’s health focused on conditions affecting the pelvic floor, bladder, and bowel. The urogynecology team at Women’s Pavilion helps patients throughout Hattiesburg, Ellisville, and South Mississippi find relief from pelvic organ prolapse, urinary incontinence, and other conditions that can affect everyday comfort and confidence.
What is Urogynecology?
Urogynecology combines gynecology and urology to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the pelvic floor, the network of muscles and tissues that support the bladder, bowel, and reproductive organs. When these muscles weaken or are damaged, it can lead to bladder leakage, pelvic pressure, or discomfort that affects daily life.
Conditions We Treat
- Pelvic organ prolapse, when pelvic organs shift or drop due to weakened support tissue.
- Urinary incontinence, including stress and urge incontinence.
- Overactive bladder, causing frequent or urgent trips to the bathroom.
- Pelvic floor dysfunction, affecting bladder, bowel, and sexual function.
When Should You See a Urogynecologist?
You may benefit from a urogynecology consultation if you experience any of the following:
- Leaking urine when you cough, sneeze, laugh, or exercise
- A frequent, sudden urge to urinate that’s hard to control
- A feeling of pressure, bulging, or heaviness in the pelvic area
- Difficulty fully emptying your bladder or bowel
- Pelvic symptoms that interfere with daily activities or exercise
Treatment Options
Women’s Pavilion offers a full range of treatment options, from conservative therapies to surgical solutions, tailored to each patient’s needs and goals.
- Non-surgical options, such as pelvic floor physical therapy, pessary devices, and lifestyle changes, can relieve mild-to-moderate symptoms without surgery.
- Surgical options, including pelvic reconstructive surgery and procedures for urinary incontinence, are available for patients who need a longer-term solution.
