Can Botox Be Taken For Urinary Incontinence?
I have had gyny.bladder leakage diag., suggests botox, I declined.. On last wk. exam by Urologist commented Alot going on in there, and wanted to refer me back to the original gyny., who basically said he could do more, except try botox. Presc. Ive been taking since 2015 Enublex, and in 2016 Vagafem pill inserts, leakage 50% worse since 2015.. Help, and thank you..

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
* The Botox has good results in urinary incontinence in terms of symptomatic score control though
-There is a study base evidences that Botox patients have more chances of urinary tract infection and need of urethral catheter in severe retention issues as compared to nerve stimulator implant.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
