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.

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 Infec
tion 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 youre 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? Robot
ic 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.
