Usually we tell patients that they can expect a watery bloody discharge for about a week then it will lessen. In my experience (over 100 patients), that watery bloody discharge is followed by a true repair of the vaginal mucosa which results in frank bloody discharge...yes, pads of blood.  For my Postmenopausal patients this is absolutely freaky. I have to assure them that they are NOT experiencing bleeding from the uterus but ARE experiencing healing of the vagina. I hope, soon, to show the vaginal changes with before and after photos. I am sure Dr. Pelosi has these. 

As Board Certified Surgeons, we can operate on you every day! The operating room (OR) for us is our second home.  However, YOU can avoid an operating room by confident understanding of side effects.

FemiLift is your friend helping you avoid the OR ..... YOU CAN DO IT!!! 

As OB/GYN's we are first surgeons, we are all trained to perform repair of the vagina in every way shape and form. Mesh... got it. No mesh... got it. If we are busy Obstetricians, we repair vaginal tears and assess vaginal weaknesses every day to prevent future incontinence problems. 

FemiLift for Stress Urinary Incontinence is amazing! Having operated on patients for over 20 years and using Urologists, Proctologists, then Urologic Gynecologists as assistants, I am so pleased to keep patients out of an operating room with the FemiLift. Patient selection is key but I have seen patients who leak every day walk the Wall of China, Jump Rope, skip with their grandchildren!

That is so cool:)

Surgical intervention is the best fix for your description. I cannot wait until we can offer you a laser treatment for this common problem. I always love to keep patients out of an operating room.

Good Luck!

Agree with Dr. Pelosi! The ALMA treatment protocols are developed to prevent burning your vagina with a laser. It is the physicians obligation, in using this amazing tool, to provide you with maximum results using the least amount of burning, pain, side effects. Please don't ask for higher settings, have a frank dialogue with your Provider to discuss which settings you can tolerate. We ALWAYS perform a test before we start. You can also get a record of the settings you tolerated. 

Good Luck! This is a great treatment for women:) 

Please look through all of these extremely qualified professional responses. In my experience, if I cannot find a surgically correctable defect on physical examination, then, YES, you will respond to the FemiLift. In addition, Crossfit offers it's own unique challenges for postpartum women but the empowerment of returning to your RealSelf is what this is all about !

At a recent conference with a bunch of geeks like me, we all were astounded to find NONE of us said the $500 "Annual Fee" for the Annual follow-up was EVER needed. We also confirmed that our Staff actually asked the patients why they did not follow up.... because they did not need it :)
