Urinary problems in women
— urological examination in Oslo and Trondheim.
Urinary leakage, frequent urination, and repeated bladder infections are common complaints in women — but not something you just have to accept. A urological examination can reveal the cause and point you to the right treatment.

Who is this suitable for?
Do you recognise your self?
An investigation is appropriate if you experience:
Are you unsure whether you need a urologist or a gynecologist? You can start here. A urological assessment gives you answers as to whether your complaints are urological, gynecological or both — and we collaborate internally interdisciplinary when appropriate.
Common causes
Common causes of urinary problems in women
Pelvic floor weakness
Weakened pelvic floor muscles — often after childbirth or with increasing age — can cause leakage on exertion (stress incontinence). The muscles that support the bladder and urethra are no longer able to seal well enough.
Overactive bladder
Overactive bladder causes frequent and often sudden urges to urinate, which can be difficult to delay. The condition is caused by involuntary contractions of the bladder and can be treated with exercises, medication, or other measures.
Hormonal changes
Lower estrogen levels after menopause make the lining of the urinary tract thinner and more vulnerable. This can increase the risk of infections, dryness, and leakage, and is a common and treatable cause.
Recurrent urinary tract infections
Recurrent bladder infections should be investigated further — they may have anatomical, hormonal, or other causes that make them more difficult to get rid of than a single infection.
How it works
How the investigation is carried out
Consultation
The urologist conducts a thorough conversation about the nature of the symptoms, their duration, and what aggravates or relieves the symptoms.
Examination
The examination is tailored to your symptoms and may include a urine sample, blood tests, measurement of the force and volume of your urine stream, and cystoscopy — a binocular examination where the doctor looks directly into the bladder. The urologist always focuses on your symptoms and determines which examinations are relevant to you.
treatment Plan
Treatment is tailored to the cause and will be individually tailored to you. It may include medication, lifestyle changes, or further referral to a physiotherapist or gynecologist if necessary.
