Women’s Health Issues
At Advanced Urology Associates, our urologists provide medical evaluation and management of urological conditions in women. For patients experiencing recurrent bladder infections, urinary incontinence, or overactive bladder symptoms, we offer treatment approaches that consider the specific aspects of women’s urological health.
COMMON FEMALE UROLOGIC CONDITIONS
- Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) – Frequent bladder infections in women can disrupt daily life and lead to complications. Our urology specialist in Singapore evaluates underlying causes—such as hormonal changes, anatomy, or hygiene habits—and offers targeted treatments, including preventive antibiotics, lifestyle adjustments, and bladder health plans.
- Urinary Incontinence in Women – Leakage when coughing, sneezing, or exercising (stress incontinence) or sudden urges to urinate (urge incontinence) are common but treatable. Our female urologist provides advanced solutions, from pelvic floor therapy to minimally invasive procedures, helping you regain confidence and comfort.
- Overactive Bladder (OAB) – Frequent, urgent bathroom trips can signal OAB, often linked to nerve issues or muscle dysfunction. Our urology clinic offers diagnostic tests, medication, and behavioral therapies to restore normal bladder function and improve quality of life.
Don’t let discomfort or embarrassment prevent you from seeking help—schedule a consultation today to address your concerns and prioritize your well-being.
