Urogynecology is the practice by which an urogynecology specialist helps a woman with the various types of pelvic floor disorders, such as prolapses or incontinence. The pelvic floor involves the muscles, ligaments, connective tissues, and nerves in the rectum, bladder, uterus, and vagina. At Littleton Wellness Center, our compassionate team of providers will dedicate themselves to providing you with the best urogynecology surgery and other urogynecology procedures. Things our specialists can address include pessaries, vaginal prolapses, incontinence sling, cystoceles, rectoceles, enteroceles, robotic vaginal vault suspension, and cystoscopy.

A pessary is a device that our urogynecology specialists can insert inside a woman's vagina to help support and lessen the stress on the bladder and other pelvic organs. It's capable of helping women manage a variety of different gynecological problems. They are a common non-surgical solution to many pelvic floor disorders. Pessaries are part of our long list of urogynecology services to aid pelvic floor therapy and other pelvic treatments.

When women are dealing with vaginal prolapse, the providers from Littleton Wellness Center are prepared to provide a variety of different treatment options. These treatments can include pelvic floor physical therapy, urethral reconstruction, a pessary, and more. The treatment option will depend on the age, the health, and the severity of the vaginal prolapse repair needs of the patient.

An incontinence sling is a common incontinence treatment for many women. This common urogynecology surgery helps women who have a difficult time controlling urinary stress incontinence when making certain movements or actions like sneezing, coughing, laughing, or lifting. By getting this particular urogynecology surgery, you can treat or lessen the extent to which you suffer from urinary stress incontinence in your life.

Cystocele repair is necessary when a woman has a prolapsed bladder. This occurs when the bladder moves and starts pushing against the outside wall of the vagina. Urogynecology surgery from our medical providers makes sure that the bladder gets put back in its appropriate position. The surgeon will also make sure that the wall between your vagina and your bladder is repaired to keep it from shifting in the future.

Also known as a posterior prolapse, a rectocele is when a woman's rectum begins to bulge into the back wall of their vagina. There are many causes for this, be it aging, vaginal birth, menopause, or other chronic diseases or conditions that place additional strains on your abdomen. The rectocele repair treatment performed by our urogynecology surgeons will not only stop the rectum from bulging into the vagina but will also strengthen the wall of your vagina.

A woman living in Littleton may find it difficult to identify their need for urogynecology surgery to deal with an enterocele. At Littleton Wellness Center, our staff will help you assess your options and recommend the most appropriate course of action. An enterocele, also known as a small bowel prolapse, happens when the small intestine shifts down and pushes at the top part of the vagina. This condition often occurs without any symptoms and requires a physical exam to diagnose properly.

Robotic vaginal vault suspension surgery is a urogynecology surgery that gets provided to women who have had a vaginal vault prolapse. This type of vaginal reconstructive surgery is required when the upper part of a woman's vagina folds into the lower part. It can even end up pushing outside the vaginal opening. Our urogynecologists use robots to lessen the consequences of this particular urogynecology surgery. For more information, call or visit our clinic today!

A cystoscopy is a procedure that allows a specialist to examine the lining of your bladder and the urethra. A cystoscopy procedure may be recommended by one of our specialists if we feel it is necessary to investigate the causes of signs and symptoms, diagnose and treat bladder diseases and conditions, and diagnose enlarged prostates.
