Urinary Incontinence Surgery

Urinary Incontinence Surgery

Urinary incontinence is the involuntary leakage of urine, a condition that significantly affects the quality of life, particularly in women. While lifestyle changes, pelvic floor exercises, and medications can help in early stages, moderate to severe cases may require surgical intervention to restore bladder control and confidence.

Urinary incontinence surgery is primarily recommended for stress urinary incontinence (SUI)—leakage that occurs during activities like coughing, sneezing, or exercising. One of the most commonly performed procedures is the sling surgery, where a small strip of mesh or the patient’s tissue is used to support the urethra and prevent urine leakage during physical stress. Other surgical options include bladder neck suspension and artificial urinary sphincter placement, depending on the severity and underlying cause.

Dr. Sarika Pandya, an experienced urologist specializing in female urology, offers advanced and minimally invasive surgical solutions for urinary incontinence. With over 15 years of experience, she ensures each patient receives individualized care—from accurate diagnosis using urodynamic testing to tailored surgical plans designed for long-lasting relief.

Surgical treatments are typically day-care or short-stay procedures, involving small incisions, less pain, and a quicker return to daily activities. Most women report a significant improvement in bladder control and quality of life after surgery.
