What to do about minimally invasive treatment of female stress incontinence

In many people’s eyes, urinary incontinence is mostly associated with infants and young children. For adults, urinary incontinence is undoubtedly a urinary disorder. So, what causes incontinence in adults? Why is it more common in women? Why is the rate of diagnosis low? What are the misconceptions? The causes of urinary incontinence are very complex, like urinary tract inflammation, obstruction, injury, as well as neurological or gynecological disorders, mental stress and so on can cause transient or short-term urinary incontinence. While some larger pelvic surgery, old age degenerative changes such as prostate hyperplasia, tumors and so on can lead to serious urinary incontinence. Urinary incontinence has become one of the world’s top 5 diseases since the mid-1990s, and has attracted more and more attention from various countries. In developed countries, the incidence of adult urinary incontinence is not low, such as the United States 39%, Germany 27%, it is presumed that the incidence of developing countries in Asia is higher. Female incontinence is very common. American Urological Association statistics show that more than half of the women in Europe and the United States have been troubled by incontinence, the incidence of incontinence in adult women in our country also remains high. Some experts have 3782 adult female incontinence sample survey, the results show that 43.1% of women with urinary incontinence. Another data shows that the incidence of urinary incontinence in the Beijing area of China is as high as 46.5%, and grows with age. In the survey, it was found that multiple childbirth, estrogen reduction caused by the urethral mucosal atrophy, obesity caused by the pelvic muscle relaxation, etc., will be due to the urethral sphincter function, coughing, running and jumping or even walking, resulting in the involuntary outflow of urine, a phenomenon known as the “stress urinary incontinence”. People with urinary incontinence live a very painful life, and the immense psychological pressure can make them feel out of breath from time to time. The fear of unpleasant odor on their body forces them to be afraid to participate in social activities, stay away from people, and even their family life is affected. Many advanced foreign treatment technologies and medicines have also been continuously introduced into our country. From clinical practice, the most effective method is still surgical treatment, which is very minimally invasive, and patients can usually get off the ground the next day. In recent years, the tension-free mid-urethral suspension (TVT) has been carried out abroad with good results in the treatment of women’s urinary incontinence, and Dr. Nie Qingsheng has carried out this surgery in 2004. In this method, a mesh belt made of a polymer material is held underneath the urethra to keep the urethra under normal control of urine. This method is so easy that the procedure requires only local anesthesia and can be completed in just over 20 minutes. It is understood that in just a few years, about 150,000 women in countries around the world have solved their incontinence problems by undergoing this type of surgery. Dr. Nie Qingsheng believes that lesbians should consult a doctor as soon as they have symptoms to avoid worsening their condition due to delay.
