Hymenoplasty (also known as hymenorrhaphy or hymen reconstruction or hymen repair) is a surgical intervention that involves reconstructing the hymen. There are a number of different techniques to achieve this but generally it involves stitching the torn edges of the hymen together with dissolvable stitches.
A urethral stricture is a narrowing in the urethra – the tube that carries urine and sperm through the penis to outside the body.
Hematuria is a condition where red blood cells are present in the urine. There are two types: ‘visible microscopic’ and ‘visible gross’ hematuria. Microscopic hematuria refers to an incidental finding, usually discovered in a urine test conducted as part of a routine medical examination.
Frequent urination should not be ignored as it could point to conditions such as urinary tract infection, diabetes, benign prostatic hyperplasia or other problems related to the prostate. Getting up in the middle of the night to urinate is called nocturia, and in severe cases sufferers may need to get up to relieve themselves five or six times during the night.
Pelvic floor disorders are conditions that affect the muscles, nerves, and ligaments that support the pelvic organs, including the bladder, bowel, and uterus. These disorders can cause a variety of symptoms, including incontinence, pain, and difficulty with sexual function.
