What is Urogynecology ?
You must be thinking who is a urogynecologist? A physician who is specially trained in pelvic floor related problems in the females is called urogynecologist. Our specialist Dr. Varun Shah is an expert who understands the issues related to the pelvic organs and their supporting muscles and tissues. Pelvic floor disorders may feel uncomfortable or embarrassing, especially when they keep you from your favorite activities. Many women think these problems are a normal part of aging. But the right treatments can relieve symptoms or even cure pelvic floor disorders.
Pelvic floor disorders develop when the pelvic floor (muscles and connective tissues) don’t work as well as they should. Connective tissues include ligaments, membranes and other tissues that support pelvic organs. In women, the pelvic organs include the bladder, vagina, uterus, small intestine and rectum (lower part of the large intestine).
