Contact UsWhat Is Pelvic Floor Dysfunction?
If you are having trouble relaxing and contracting your pelvic floor muscles to have a bowel movement and urinate, you may be experiencing pelvic floor dysfunction. Symptoms of this condition include chronic constipation, urine leakage, lower back pain, and pelvic pain. There are a few known causes of pelvic floor dysfunction, such as traumatic injuries to the pelvis, aging, pregnancy, being overweight, and muscle overuse from straining too hard while using the bathroom. At Metro Atlanta Urology and Pelvic Health Center, we offer nonsurgical treatment options for pelvic floor dysfunction. To learn more about this condition, contact our office in Kennesaw, GA, and schedule an appointment with Dr. Shenelle Wilson.
What Are Treatments for Pelvic Floor Dysfunction?
Surgery is not typically needed for pelvic floor dysfunction. Instead, treatment may include lifestyle changes, such as eating a high-fiber diet, increasing your fluid intake, and taking laxatives to ease your bowel movements. We also offer pelvic floor therapy, which is a type of physical therapy used to provide you with exercises to stretch your pelvic floor muscles and help you relax them so pain is lessened while coordination improves. Prior to starting pelvic floor therapy, we will assess your symptoms so we can come up with customized exercises that will work best for you. Types of pelvic floor therapy we may use include Kegels and biofeedback.

I am thrilled about my new partnership with Dr. Wilson—she is truly an answer to prayer. I had concerns about a previous procedure, and during my visit with her, she provided exactly the clarity and care I needed. The appointment was incredibly candid, and unlike many doctor visits, it didn’t feel uncomfortable or rushed. Dr. Wilson took ample time to thoroughly answer all my questions and ensured I felt valued, never treating the visit as purely transactional because of my insurance. She also outlined a detailed roadmap for the future, giving me confidence and direction. Her bedside manner is as exceptional as her expertise, which was evident from the very beginning. Dr. Wilson wasted no time addressing my case and quickly set the wheels in motion on pending matters. I’m genuinely grateful to have connected with Dr. Wilson and her amazing staff. If you’re considering a new urologist, I highly recommend scheduling a visit with her—you’ll immediately notice the difference compared to others.
I had my first visit and I am extremely happy with the service I was provided. She educated me and we have a plan of action in place. Everyone was so nice, from the front desk to the doctor. It ended up being an enjoyable experience.
