Urinary incontinence (involuntary loss of urine)

One of the most frequent problems that develop as women age. Childbearing affects the incidence as well as hereditary factors. Many women suffer silently thinking that this is inevitable part of aging. It is NOT! In fact, women often hesitate to even bring this up to their physician because it is embarrassing for them to talk about. Some women leak urine that is associated with strong urge and others lose urine when they cough, laugh, or sneeze. Some women cannot exercise because of this. The good news is that this problem can be correctly diagnosed and treated. You don’t need to suffer unnecessarily.

Urinary incontinence can practically control a woman’s life. Take back the control of your life. We are also seeing a tremendous increase in this problem as women are living longer and longer. This is the reason why Dr. Eun has invested significant amount of time and effort in developing a special expertise in this area. We begin the evaluation with a detailed questionnaire and voiding diary. This is followed by careful physical examination and testing. We have the latest computerized technology to aid in making a correct diagnosis of your incontinence (urodynamic testing unit) right in our office so that you don’t have to go to a major center for the same sophisticated testing capability. After complete evaluation has been done, we will then discuss all the different options to treat your condition including certain exercises, biofeedback, physical therapy, behavioral training, medications, and surgery. If surgical treatment is recommended, Dr. Eun performs one of the most advanced minimally invasive procedures available that can be done as outpatient.

Genital Prolapse:

As women have babies and advance in years, sometimes the uterus and/or vagina lose support and they start falling down. We are seeing a tremendous increase in this condition as women are living longer and longer. This condition may cause heavy sensation in the vagina, pressure, back or pelvic pain, difficulty with intercourse, and sometimes results in a big bulge outside the vagina. In the last few years, there has been a tremendous amount of research in this area resulting in many innovative new techniques. We have been trained in these latest new techniques in pelvic floor reconstruction that go far beyond the traditional methods of dealing with these problems.
