Does a leaky bladder or pelvic organ prolapse keep you from enjoying your life?
If you sometimes leak urine when you laugh, cough, sneeze or exercise, you may have a medical condition known as stress urinary incontinence.
If you experience pressure-like discomfort or problems with bladder or bowel control, you may have pelvic organ prolapse.
These conditions affect millions of women, and cause discomfort and embarrassment.
Stress urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse are common and treatable conditions. You can learn more at this FREE educational seminar presented by Labib E. Riachi, M.D., one of the leading physicians providing treatment options in the field of urogynecology.
Dr. Riachi will help you understand how to regain control of your life by treating these conditions, and partners are welcome to attend, too.
To register, please call Dr. Riachi's office at 908-282-2000.
