At Women’s Health Care Specialists, we offer the most innovative testing and treatment options for urinary incontinence. Dr. Beyer, our providers and staff work with the patients and their unique needs to create a treatment plan for each individual.

What Is Urinary Incontinence?

Urinary incontinence is the loss of urine. There are a few types of incontinence:

• Stress Incontinence – loss of urine upon sneezing, coughing, laughing or exercise.
• Urge incontinence – loss of urine with a feeling of urgency; some women with overactive bladder symptoms leak before they can make it to the restroom.
• Mixed incontinence – some patients may have a mixture of stress and urge incontinence.

How is urinary incontinence treated?

• Treatment options for stress incontinence include kegel exercises, pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation, and outpatient minimally invasive procedures and surgery.
• Treatment options for urge incontinence include medication, kegel exercises, pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation, biofeedback and electrical stimulation, outpatient minimally invasive procedures and surgery.
