Rebuild Your Health From the Pelvic Floor Up

From bladder leaks to pelvic pain, pelvic health issues can take a toll on your life. Luckily, expert care is close at hand. Make an appointment today.

The female pelvis is home to the vagina, uterus, bladder, urethra and rectum. Plus, it holds the muscles and tissues that support these organs. When something goes wrong there, the specialists at LVPG Obstetrics and Gynecology (OB-GYN) can help you get your health back on track again.

More common than you may think

Pelvic floor dysfunction results when the muscles of the pelvic floor weaken and no longer provide solid support to the pelvic organs. Nearly 25 percent of U.S. women are affected by pelvic floor disorders. These disorders are particularly common after childbirth.

Pelvic symptoms may include:

Urine leaks
Lower back pain
Feeling of pelvic pressure
Trouble emptying the bladder completely
Difficulty having a bowel movement
Organs bulging out of the vagina

If you experience these symptoms, help is available. Our specialists at LVPG OB-GYN can evaluate what you're experiencing. They may refer you to subspecialists known as urogynecologists, who specialize in female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery. The urogynecologists can help you choose the best treatment options for you.
