Urge Incontinence

Reclaim Your Confidence: Specialized Care for Urge Incontinence

The unexpected leakage of urine that follows a sudden, desperate urge is more than just a physical event—it’s an emotional burden that can steal your confidence and drastically shrink your world. This is Urge Incontinence (UI), often the most stressful symptom associated with Overactive Bladder (OAB). It’s the fear of sneezing, the anxiety of searching for a restroom in a crowded place, and the quiet despair of avoiding activities you once loved.

At Tooele Urology, our dedicated team specialize in female urology, and we deeply understand the sensitive nature of this condition. We believe that you deserve to live without the constant worry of leakage. Our mission is built on listening to your story, validating your concerns, and delivering expert, compassionate care to help you restore reliable bladder control. You don’t have to compromise your life for this condition.

Our Comprehensive Road Map to Dryness

We employ a thorough, staged approach to treating Urge Incontinence, beginning with a precise diagnosis and progressing through the most effective non-surgical and advanced procedural options available.

Phase 1: Precision Diagnosis and Foundational Therapy

Effective treatment begins with absolute clarity on the cause of your UI.

Urodynamic Studies (Bladder Function Testing): As a specialized service at our center, this advanced testing allows us to precisely visualize and measure your bladder’s ability to store urine and identify the exact nature of the involuntary muscle contractions that cause leakage. This step ensures your treatment plan is not generalized, but highly targeted.
Behavioral & Lifestyle Coaching: The first line of defense focuses on optimizing your body’s natural mechanisms. This includes structured Bladder Retraining to desensitize your urge response, Urge Suppression Techniques to halt a leak before it starts, and tailored advice on Dietary Modification to reduce common bladder irritants.
Pelvic Floor Muscle Training: While often overlooked, the strength and coordination of your pelvic floor muscles are vital. We provide guidance and resources to ensure you are performing targeted exercises correctly, which help support the urethra and suppress bladder spasms.

Phase 2: Targeted Medical Intervention

When lifestyle changes are insufficient, we transition to targeted medical therapies designed to relax the bladder muscle and normalize nerve communication.

Oral Medications: We offer the latest generation of prescriptions, including Anticholinergics (to block nerve signals) and Beta-3 Agonists (to relax the bladder and increase its capacity), always working to find the most effective drug with the fewest side effects for your unique chemistry.
Topical Therapy: For women navigating menopause, a targeted low-dose topical estrogen treatment can often restore strength and health to the urethral and vaginal tissues, providing crucial structural support against leakage.

Phase 3: Advanced, Long-Term Solutions

For persistent or severe Urge Incontinence, our center offers cutting-edge, definitive solutions delivered with surgical expertise.

Neuromodulation Therapy: We provide evaluation for and implantation of InterStim Nerve Stimulator devices. Often referred to as a “pelvic pacemaker,” this technology functions by sending mild electrical impulses to the sacral nerves, which control the bladder. By regulating these signals, we can dramatically reduce the frequency and severity of the sudden, involuntary leaks associated with UI.
Botox Injections: An in-office procedure where small, precise doses of Botox are injected into the bladder muscle to temporarily calm hyperactivity, providing relief from severe urgency and leakage for several months.
Robotic Vaginal Repair for Incontinence: For cases where the structural support of the pelvis is a contributing factor, our specialists utilize robotic-assisted surgery to perform exact and minimally invasive repairs. This advanced technique ensures meticulous reconstruction, resulting in durable outcomes, reduced pain, and a faster return to your everyday life.

Don’t let the fear of leakage dictate your daily schedule. Take the first step toward living freely.
