Although women can experience bladder and urinary problems at any time, many of the common conditions worsen with age. Some of the most frequent problems Dr. Moukarzel treats include:
A variety of factors influence the development of bladder and urinary problems. In cases of incontinence, there’s either a miscommunication between the brain and the bladder or your urinary control muscles don’t squeeze strongly enough. You may have an issue with your bladder muscle or the nerves that send communication signals to your brain.
Some bladder and urinary problems result from stress and trauma to your pelvic region. This can include childbirth, chronic coughs, and obesity. Neurological conditions can also lead to urinary problems.
Some problems result due to the normal effects of aging and menopause, while others result from physical inactivity or pregnancy.
Dr. Moukarzel determines the best course for the treatment of your bladder and urinary condition by considering a variety of factors, including your health, age, the severity of your symptoms, and the impact they have on your daily life.
To ensure you get the best care possible, he offers a complete bladder workup for those struggling with urinary problems. This workup includes a cystoscopy, urodynamics, and overactive bladder management, including urgency, frequency, incomplete emptying, and urinary leakage.
