Living with an overactive bladder can be challenging, affecting your daily activities, sleep, and overall quality of life. Understanding the symptoms, diagnosis, and management options for overactive bladder can help you take control of this condition.
Overactive bladder is characterized by a sudden, uncontrollable urge to urinate, often accompanied by increased frequency of urination and nocturia (waking up at night to urinate). This condition can be caused by various factors, including aging, neurological disorders, bladder abnormalities, and certain medications.
Our hospital offers comprehensive diagnostic services to accurately identify the cause of your overactive bladder. This may include a detailed medical history, physical examination, urine tests, and bladder function tests. Identifying the underlying cause is crucial for developing an effective treatment plan.
Management options for overactive bladder include lifestyle modifications, medications, and advanced therapies. Lifestyle changes, such as reducing caffeine and alcohol intake, practicing bladder training techniques, and maintaining a healthy weight, can help manage symptoms. Medications, such as anticholinergics and beta-3 agonists, can relax the bladder muscles and reduce urgency and frequency.
For patients who do not respond to lifestyle changes and medications, our hospital offers advanced treatments such as bladder injections with botulinum toxin (Botox) and nerve stimulation therapies. These treatments can provide significant relief from symptoms and improve your quality of life.
