Benefits and Cost of Laser in Treating Urinary Incontinence

Urinary incontinence generally strikes as women get older, but it can also become problematic after childbirth or surgery. Urinary incontinence will generally get better with some exercise - physiotherapy and tons of kegel exercises - but sometimes it may require a little surgery.
If you are in the UAE and struggling with incontinence, you may want to make an appointment to see Dr. Zainab, the best gynaecologist in Sharjah who specialises in all aspects of women’s health. Vaginal laser treatment is different from vaginal cosmetic surgery in that it is less intrusive, a non invasive procedure and does not require surgery.

The benefits to laser treatment for incontinence are that it is speedy, it works, the vaginal wall is strengthened, and it is pain free.
If you are struggling with urinary incontinence, make an appointment to see Dr. Zainab. If your problems are small, after a sneeze or a laugh, she may suggest a few sessions of physiotherapy, or even that you do exercises at home. She would then re-assess you and make a decision regarding laser treatment. If it is immediately obvious that your urinary incontinence is severe and impacting negatively on your life, she will discuss laser therapy with you.
When laser treatment is done, the laser stimulates the mucous membranes and the underlying connective tissue of the vulva. It helps the vagina support the urethra, everything tightens and strengthens, and although it is still recommended you do a few kegel exercises, your problems should be over.

The cost of laser treatment for urinary treatment is a lot less than cosmetic vaginal surgery, although truthfully, the two should not be compared, and they both do different things. Because laser treatment is an in-and-out procedure, and quick, it is not expensive. You need to discuss the costs with your doctor, as well as the procedure.
The other good thing about laser treatment is that women go out about their daily business, immediately, without restriction. They may feel a little tender or sore, but they can sit, pee and go about their daily activities. One round of laser treatment may be sufficient, or your doctor will recommend a few treatments. She will talk to you about the schedule.
Most women who have vaginal laser treatment find that their incontinence is cured. They may be told to come back on an annual basis, or as needed, for further treatment, but this is general upkeep. Again, it is always recommended that women exercise, not just their stomachs, thighs, upper arms and bottoms, but their vaginas too. That is advice for women of all age, from 16 to 96!  Always do your kegel exercises - Dr. Zainab, as the best gynaecologist in Sharjah, will give you an exercise program. And keep yourself in as good as shape as possible.
Feel a sneeze coming on? If you’ve had vaginal laser therapy, it’s unlikely you will have any problems! And feel free to laugh like crazy. You’ll be safe down there!
