Urologic Incontinence (UI) in Women
Urinary incontinence (UI) is the loss of bladder control. Anyone can experience urinary incontinence, but it becomes most common with age. Urinary incontinence in women can be caused by pregnancy and vaginal childbirth, genetic factors, obesity and other medical conditions.
There are several different types of incontinence, and your doctor will determine which type you have by reviewing your complete medical history, discussing your symptoms with you and performing some common tests.
If you and your doctor have decided surgery is necessary, St. Bernardine Medical Center’s da Vinci® Surgical System may offer you a safer, more effective alternative to traditional open surgery or laparoscopy.
