Conditions Affecting Women

Urology is sometimes mistaken as a specialty for men, but our experts handle conditions that affect the kidneys, urethra, and bladder of both sexes. Women are welcome to schedule an appointment at our Utah Urology Clinic for any of these conditions, or if you have unexplained pain in the genital region.

Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs)

Women are more prone to recurrent UTIs due to their anatomy. Ogden Clinic urologists provide advanced testing, treatment, and prevention strategies for chronic or complicated infections. We also offer telemedicine (virtual) appointments for UTI.

Urinary Incontinence

Loss of bladder control can occur due to pregnancy, childbirth, aging, or other factors. Urologists offer treatments ranging from lifestyle modifications and prescribing pelvic floor therapy, to medications and surgical options.

Postmenopausal Urinary Changes

Hormonal changes after menopause can lead to increased UTIs, the urge to urinate, vaginal dryness or discomfort. You can find hormone-free and hormone-based therapies here in Urology to help restore comfort and bladder function.

Sexual Health Concerns

The team at Ogden Clinic Urology can help women experiencing painful intercourse, low libido, or vaginal dryness—often due to hormonal changes, menopause, or other medical conditions. We have options ranging from medication to various therapies and an elective treatment called CO₂RE Intima vaginal rejuvenation.

Overactive Bladder (OAB)

Frequent and sudden urges to urinate can disrupt daily life. Our urologists diagnose and treat OAB with behavioral therapies, medications, and advanced treatments like Botox injections or nerve stimulation.

Pelvic Organ Prolapse

Weakening of the pelvic floor can cause the bladder, uterus, or rectum to drop, leading to discomfort and urinary issues. Urologists work alongside gynecologists to offer both non-surgical and surgical solutions for prolapse.

Kidney Stones

Women can develop kidney stones due to dehydration, diet, or metabolic conditions. Your options from an Ogden Clinic urologist include pain management, stone removal procedures, and prevention plans.

Chronic Bladder Pain (Interstitial Cystitis (IC))

Chronic bladder pain, pressure, and frequent urination may indicate IC. Urologists help manage symptoms with dietary modifications, medications, and specialized treatments.

Blood in Urine (Hematuria)

Seeing blood in urine is alarming, but visiting a urologist is the first step toward identifying the cause. These may range from infections to kidney stones or more serious conditions.
