1 IF YOU VE GOT TO GO, WE VE GOT SOLUTIONS. Get the facts about urinary incontinence and get real solutions. HENRY FORD PELVIC HEALTH & CONTINENCE CENTER HENRY FORD WOMEN S HEALTH SERVICES
2 INCONVENIENCE? or INCONTINENCE? Are you using the bathroom so often it disrupts your day or wakes you up at night? Do you find it hard to make it to the bathroom, or do you have accidents? Are you worried that when you cough, sneeze or lift heavy objects you will leak urine? Are you experiencing pressure or bulging in your vagina, especially after standing for long periods? Are you using pads to protect your clothing from bladder leakage? Do you visit the bathroom to urinate more than 8 times a day? If you answered yes to any of these, urinary incontinence is getting in the way of life. You re not alone. 1 IN 3 WOMEN experience urinary incontinence the inability to control the flow of urine.
3 The Whats and Whys OF INCONTINENCE WHAT TYPE WHAT IT FEELS LIKE WHY IT MAY BE HAPPENING Urge incontinence A sudden gotta go feeling An infection or other cause of irritation to the bladder. Stress incontinence Leaking when you cough, sneeze or laugh Weakened structural support to the bladder, such as a weakened urethral sphincter muscle. Overflow incontinence Your bladder isn t completely emptied A weakened bladder, blocked urethra or nerve damage. WHAT ELSE CAN CAUSE URINARY INCONTINENCE? Shifting of pelvic organs due to childbirth or other events Neurological conditions Medication side effects Hormonal changes
4 WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS? Some people think that urinary incontinence is a normal part of aging. Nothing could be further from the truth. Urinary incontinence is highly treatable. Because there are many types and causes, your Henry Ford specialist will work with you to determine the best course of treatment. Possibilities include: THE SIMPLEST ROUTE: In many cases, lifestyle changes can correct the issue. This can include modifying your fluid intake, urinating more frequently, losing weight and adding pelvic floor (Kegel) exercises to your daily routine. LEADING-EDGE OPTIONS: The experts at Henry Ford are pioneering minimally invasive treatments such as InterStim therapy and posterior tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS). These highly effective treatments involve electrical nerve stimulation, which can be done as an outpatient procedure with minimal discomfort. SURGICAL OPTIONS: We offer minimally invasive and robotic surgery options that can be done on an outpatient basis, placing a support band, sometimes known as a sling, around the urethra to stabilize the area and restore ligament support. BIOFEEDBACK: We can use this technique to measure bodily functions and determine exactly how you can improve these functions through relaxation and imagery. MEDICATIONS: Prescription medications are available that can help improve bladder control, relax the bladder and increase its muscle tone. BOTOX INJECTIONS: This FDA-approved method can help increase bladder control affected by nerve, brain or spinal cord conditions. TREATMENTS FOR PELVIC PROLAPSE: If one or more organs have shifted in the pelvic region, your specialist may recommend minimally invasive surgery to ensure proper placement and functioning, physical therapy and exercises to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, and/or the insertion of a pessary to help support the organs and prevent further shifts. Pessaries can also help support the bladder and are sometimes used to treat urinary incontinence.
