Extractions: Actually, your urinary system is really an amazing piece of work. Every time you eat, your body absorbs fluids into your blood stream. Every day, the billions of cells in your body generate waste products that are toxic and must be removed. Your two kidneys constantly filter your bloodstream to remove excess fluid and toxins from your body. This excess fluid, or urine, is transported down each ureter (YOUR-eh-tur) and stored in your urinary bladder (not to be confused with your gall bladder) until it is socially acceptable to empty. The bladder is a balloon-shaped muscular organ that changes shape as it fills with urine.

Recent Columns Index Is it possible to get "bruised ovaries" during sex? 09-Aug-2002 Dear Cecil: I have a question that only you might be able to answer. My brother claims to be well-endowed enough that a former "girlfriend" says he bruised one of her ovaries. Now, nothing is totally impossible, but how likely is it that this could happen with normal human beings? Are there ANY cases of it on record? What are the most common injuries from rough sex, anyway? Dwayne White, Southside High School Cecil replies: Not to suggest your brother was jerking you around, Dwayne, but we need to consider the physical realities. Do you have any idea where the ovaries are? Allow me to give you a little tour. Entering the female reproductive system by means of the vagina, we travel four to five inches until we reach the cervix, the muscled entrance to the uterus. The cervix normally is tightly closed, although it can dilate, not without difficulty, to allow passage of babies, IUDs (inserted through a straw), etc. Arriving in the uterus, a fist-sized organ located an inch or two below the waistline, we then make a sharp right or left turn to reach the fallopian tubes. The tubes are three to four inches long with an inner diameter the size of a human hair. They connect the uterus to a point near the ovaries, curving around a good deal in the process. In other words, to bruise an ovary directly, your brother would need something on the order of one of those scary prehensile tentacles in

Extractions: Many women with pelvic organ prolapse report problems with bladder and bowel functions. However, these symptoms are not always due to pelvic organ prolapse and therefore accurate diagnosis is very important. Symptoms that are often associated with pelvic organ prolapse include urinary incontinence, difficult urination, discomfort with sexual intercourse, stool incontinence, difficult defecation, low back pain and low abdominal pain. In most cases, pelvic organ prolapse is diagnosed during a gynecologic (pelvic) examination. By observing the position of the vaginal walls and cervix, the physician can identify areas of prolapse. Usually, the woman is examined while straining or bearing down to demonstrate all areas of prolapse. The position of various sites of prolapse can be measured to identify areas of mild, moderate, or severe weaknesses in support.

Extractions: Urinary Incontinence What is urinary incontinence? What are the different types of incontinence? How is urinary incontinence diagnosed? How is urinary incontinence treated? What is urinary incontinence? Urinary Incontinence is the uncontrolled loss of urine and is not normal at any age beyond the stage of toilet training. It is a common and under treated problem. It is estimated that at least 10-15 million Americans suffer from urinary incontinence. It occurs in both men and women, but is more common in women. What are the different types of incontinence? Urge Incontinence : The inability to hold urine long enough to reach a toilet. There is a strong and sudden urge to urinate followed by an involuntary loss of urine. People who suffer from urge incontinence say the need to void comes with little warning and may be present both day and night. The ability to delay emptying the bladder is reduced or lost with urge incontinence. Sometimes people find environmental clues such as putting their keys in the door or hearing running water can set off the urge to go. For unknown reasons as the bladder ages, urge incontinence may occur and may get worse. A healthy person has a series of warnings or messages that the bladder is full and can postpone voiding until a socially acceptable time is found Stress Incontinence : The involuntary loss of urine during coughing, sneezing, laughing or other physical activities that increase abdominal pressure. The amount of urine lost may vary from dribbling to gushes of urine depending on how long it has been since the bladder was last emptied and how severe the problem. Stress incontinence may be caused by weakness of the pelvic floor muscles or from sphincter incompetence. As the muscles that support the bladder and external sphincter lose strength, they relax and shift downward; therefore bladder control may decrease.

Extractions: To Newsletter Archive It can happen after childbirth or menopause and can strike while exercising or laughing - embarrassing problems such as urine leakage or uterine prolapse that you're reluctant to discuss with anyone including your doctor. But according to Lily Arya, MD , a urogynecologist at PENN Health for Women, you're not alone and effective treatments are available. What are Urogynecologic Disorders? At almost every stage of life, women might experience pain or dysfunction in the urogynecologic area, which includes the uterus, cervix, vagina, bladder and rectum. In addition to incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse, common disorders include painful bladder syndromes such as interstitial cystitis and recurrent urinary infections. The Impact of Pregnancy and Childbirth Pregnancy and childbirth can stretch or damage tissues that support the pelvic organs. As a result, many women suffer from urogynecologic problems both while carrying and after delivering their babies. It's not uncommon to have trouble holding your urine, especially during exercise or physical exertion. Another common condition is uterine prolapse, often described as a dropped uterus, fallen bladder or bulging rectum. Prolapse results when the ligaments holding the uterus in place stretch or break. The uterus moves out of place and can protrude through the vagina.

Extractions: Dear Dr. SerVaas: Recently, a doctor recommended that I have surgery to correct a fallen bladder. I have heard about a device called a pessary, which is inserted in the vagina to hold the bladder in place. Can you tell me about this device and whom I can contact to learn more about it? Bobbie Coffman Phoenix, Arizona A pessary fits into the vagina to help reposition and support the uterus, bladder, or rectum. Available by prescription, pessaries are usually made of silicone and must be fitted by a healthcare professional. Doctors say that finding the most effective and comfortable pessary sometimes requires several fittings. Pessaries offer a safe and economical alternative to surgery for some women. Many can be worn for days at a time before they need to be removed and cleaned with soap and water. They are not contraceptive devices.

Extractions: Medical Articles of Interest CYSTOCELE CYSTOCELE AND/OR UTERINE PROLAPSE A cystocele or uterine prolapse is not life-threatening. It does not cause or become cancerous. Attempted correction of these situations is actually elective. If a woman notices these symptoms, she should see her physician for evaluation. Treatment may involve trying to keep the bowel contents soft so there is less bearing down at the time of a bowel movement. Certain exercises to strengthen the muscles of the area called Kegel exercises may be prescribed. Surgical correction is often available. A pessary is a device that is placed in the vagina to help hold up the bladder and uterus. Your doctor may discuss this with you and fit you with a pessary. When a pessary is in place, the patient should not be able to feel it. If you have further questions concerning cystocele and/or uterine prolapse, please contact our office to make an appointment. One of our physicians would be happy to discuss cystocele and/or uterine prolapse with you.
