Some of the conditions we commonly see include:

​

• Overactive bladder or urge incontinence - a sudden and intense desire to urinate which may come on without reason or during circumstances such as hearing running water or putting a key in the front door.

​

• Prolapse of the pelvic organs (uterus/cervix, bladder and bowel). 

​

• Bowel dysfunction - difficulties with constipation, emptying bowels, faecal urgency/leakage and difficulty controlling wind.
