About A Woman's Guide To Pelvic Health: Expert Advice For

Product Description Pelvic floor problems, such as incontinence, are not normal in women at any age, and there are multiple solutions to relieve symptoms. In A Woman’s Guide to Pelvic Health a urologist and a physical therapist offer expert and reassuring advice to women. For example, one of every four women suffers from urinary incontinence, the involuntary leakage of urine. Elizabeth E. Houser and Stephanie Riley Hahn want these women to know that they do not have to cope in silence with this embarrassing problem, limit their lifestyle, or spend thousands of dollars on adult diapers. Symptoms involving the pelvic floor, including urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and decreased sexual sensation, can occur at any age. A wide range of treatments, such as targeted exercises, nutrition, and acupuncture, as well as medications and surgical approaches, can bring relief. Case studies and illustrations help readers explore the cause of their own symptoms and how treatments work. A Woman's Guide to Pelvic Health encourages women to address their pelvic floor issues and reclaim their lives. Review "The authors combine an upbeat, positive tone with detailed, understandable descriptions of pelvic floor disorders and treatment options. Highly recommended for any woman suffering from one of these disorders."
