Women’s health and the pelvic floor

Urogynaecology in Lugano

Urogynecology is the specialist area that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of female pelvic floor disorders, such as urinary incontinence, genital prolapse, pelvic heaviness, urinary urgency, and other issues related to bladder function.

These are common disorders, but often kept silent due to embarrassment or mistakenly considered an inevitable consequence of age, pregnancy, or childbirth. In reality, a specialist assessment can help understand the origin of the problem and identify the most appropriate pathway.

At Goinè Medical Center, each patient is welcomed with confidentiality, attentive listening, and attention to her medical history, with the aim of offering a personalized diagnostic and therapeutic pathway.

Diagnosis, listening and personalised care

Common disorders that should not be underestimated

Urogynecological disorders can significantly impact daily life. Urinary leakage, urgent need to urinate, heaviness, pelvic discomfort, or difficulty during intercourse can limit personal freedom, physical activity, social life, and emotional well-being.

Many women live with these symptoms for a long time before discussing them with a specialist. At Goinè Medical Center, the urogynecological approach begins with listening: understanding when the disorder started, how it manifests, and how much it affects quality of life is essential for establishing a truly useful pathway.

The assessment may include a specialist examination, targeted tests, and functional investigations, with the aim of distinguishing the different causes of the disorder and proposing appropriate solutions. Based on the clinical picture, conservative treatments, rehabilitation pathways, medical therapies, or, when indicated, surgical solutions may be considered.

The urogynaecological pathway

Listening and Assessment

The pathway begins with a dedicated specialist examination, during which symptoms, medical history, pregnancies, previous procedures, and the impact of the disorder on daily life are collected.

Diagnosis and Further Investigation

When necessary, targeted tests may be indicated, such as urodynamic testing, to assess bladder function and better understand the origin of symptoms.

Personalized Treatment

Based on the diagnosis, a tailored pathway is defined that may include conservative therapies, rehabilitation recommendations, medical treatments, or surgical solutions in selected cases.
