2. Pelvic organ prolapse is when 1 or
more of the organs in the pelvis slip
down from their normal position and
bulge into the vagina. It can be the
womb (uterus), bowel, bladder or top
of the vagina. A prolapse is not life
threatening, but it can cause pain and
discomfort.

3. Urinary incontinence — the loss of
bladder control — is a common and
often embarrassing problem. The
severity ranges from occasionally
leaking urine when you cough or
sneeze to having an urge to urinate
that's so sudden and strong you don't
get to a toilet in time.
Though it occurs more often as people
get older, urinary incontinence isn't an
inevitable consequence of aging. If
urinary incontinence affects your daily
activities, don't hesitate to see your
doctor. For most people, simple
lifestyle and dietary changes or
medical care can treat symptoms of
urinary incontinence.

4. What is neurogenic bladder?
Your bladder is a hollow organ located
in your pelvis or lower abdomen. One
of the main jobs of your bladder is to
store urine (pee). The other is to
remove urine from your body in
response to signals from your spinal
cord and brain.
Neurogenic bladder is the term for
what happens when neurological
(nervous system) conditions affect the
way your bladder works. There are two
major types of bladder control
problems linked to neurogenic
bladder. Depending on the nerves
involved and the nature of the damage,
your bladder becomes either overactive
(spastic or hyper-reflexive) or
underactive (flaccid or hypotonic).

5. Fecal incontinence is not being able to
control bowel movements. Stool leaks
from the rectum without warning. Fecal
incontinence ranges from an
occasional leakage of stool while
passing gas to a complete loss of
bowel control. Fecal incontinence is
sometimes called bowel incontinence.
Common causes of fecal incontinence
include diarrhea, constipation, and
muscle or nerve damage. The muscle
or nerve damage may be associated
with aging or with giving birth.
Whatever the cause, fecal incontinence
can be difficult to discuss. But don't
shy away from talking to your doctor
about this common problem.
Treatments can improve fecal
incontinence and your quality of life.

6. Check if it's a urinary tract infection
(UTI)
Symptoms of a urinary tract infection
(UTI) may include:
pain or a burning sensation when
peeing (dysuria)
needing to pee more often than usual
needing to pee more often than usual
during the night (nocturia)
needing to pee suddenly or more
urgently than usual
pee that looks cloudy

7. Types of bladder sling complications
include:
Bladder outlet obstruction
Bleeding
Infection
Intestinal perforation
Pain
Urinary tract infection
Urinary urgency
Vaginal extrusion of mesh
Unfortunately, these injuries can cause
recurrence or even worsen urinary
problems. Despite these risks, most
doctors prefer mesh slings made of
polypropylene, a type of plastic, to
treat stress urinary incontinence. The
U.S. Food and Drug Administration and
doctors agree that bladder slings are
less problematic than mesh for
treating pelvic organ prolapse.

8. What are the symptoms of interstitial
cystitis/bladder pain syndrome?
Symptoms include:
Pain in your bladder region.
Pressure or discomfort when your
bladder is filling.
Urinary frequency.
Urinary urgency.
Only peeing a small amount.
Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain
syndrome symptoms vary among
people. They may be mild or severe.
They also may be constant or only
appear occasionally.
If you’re a woman or person AFAB,
your symptoms often get worse

9. Vaginal hysterectomy is a surgical
procedure to remove the uterus
through the vagina.
During a vaginal hysterectomy, the
surgeon detaches the uterus from the
ovaries, fallopian tubes and upper
vagina, as well as from the blood
vessels and connective tissue that
support it, before removing the uterus.
Vaginal hysterectomy involves a
shorter time in the hospital, lower cost
and faster recovery than an abdominal
hysterectomy, which requires an
incision in your lower abdomen.
However, depending on the size and
shape of your uterus or the reason for
the surgery, vaginal hysterectomy
might not be possible. Your doctor will
talk to you about other surgical
options, such as an abdominal
hysterectomy.

10. What Is Robotic Pelvic Floor
Reconstruction?
Robotic pelvic floor reconstruction,
also called robotic sacrocolpopexy, is a
minimally invasive surgery to treat
pelvic organ prolapse. Pelvic organ
prolapse happens when the pelvic
organs (bladder, bowel, uterus,
urethra) drop or fall out of their normal
place.
During robotic sacrocolpopexy,
specially trained surgeons reposition
the pelvic organs using robotic arms
and a tiny camera. In some cases,
robotic sacrocolpopexy is paired with
robotic hysterectomy (removal of the
uterus). You and your surgeon can
discuss whether a hysterectomy is best
for you.
