OVERACTIVE BLADDER IN WOMEN WITH GENITAL PROLAPSE DURING MENOPAUSE

Abstract

Epidemiological studies showed that overactive bladder (OAB) syndrome is among the ten most common diseases, ahead of diabetes, gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer. In addition, the number of patients with OAB is steadily growing every year. Prevalence of OAB ranges from 12 to 22%, and despite a significant decline in the quality of life, only 4–6,2% of patients seek the help of professionals.
