What to know about Black Urogynecology / Pelvic Floor care
Urogynecology, also called Female Pelvic Medicine & Reconstructive Surgery, treats pelvic organ prolapse, urinary incontinence, fecal incontinence, and pelvic floor dysfunction. Black women have long been underdiagnosed in this specialty. A Female Pelvic Medicine & Reconstructive Surgery 2019 study found Black women with equal prolapse severity were 40 percent less likely to be offered surgery than white women. The message "it's just aging" is often untrue and treatable.
