Urogynaecology

Urogynaecology covers all aspects of female urinary incontinence and vaginal prolapse and includes investigation and treatment of conditions such as stress-incontinence and continence-related problems. This is undertaken by a multi-disciplinary team including doctors, nurses and physiotherapists.

We offer a comprehensive assessment and investigation service, providing medication, physiotherapy and, if appropriate, surgery.

The department receives referrals from GPs or from the Community Continence Service for a variety of problems related to the female pelvic floor. This includes incontinence, difficulty passing urine, urinary tract infections (cystitis) and vaginal prolapse.

The Urogynaecology Department is based in Croft Wing Outpatient Department, Warrington Hospital.
