Diseases of the Pelvic Floor, Incontinence
Diagnostics, conservative treatment concepts and advanced surgical corrections for functional pelvic disorders.
The treatment of incontinence depends on many individual factors such as existing pelvic floor problems, chronic sphincter changes or old injuries.
"Proktologie Prinzregenten 121" in Munich carries out all conservative and surgical procedures, both in-patient and out-patient, such as sphincter reconstruction and supporting systems such as sacral nerve stimulation with an incontinence pacemaker.
In connection with voiding disorders and weakness of the pelvic floor, complaints with a constant feeling of pressure, incomplete voiding, strong intestinal gas development and a feeling of fullness often occur.

Urinary & Fecal Incontinence
Incontinence (weakness in stool or urine retention) often massively affects the quality of life of those affected. It is frequently caused by chronic changes in the sphincter, congenital or acquired pelvic floor weaknesses, or injuries (e.g. after child birth). In our practice, we develop an individually adjusted step-by-step plan to restore continence.
Core Treatments & Procedures
- Conservative therapies: Specialized pelvic floor training with biofeedback and electrotherapy for targeted muscle strengthening.
- Sacral nerve stimulation (SNS): Minimally invasive implantation of an incontinence pacemaker for gentle nerve stimulation.
- Sphincter reconstruction: Surgical restoration of the anatomical integrity of the sphincter muscle.
Pelvic Floor Weakness & Emptying Disorders
Relaxation of the pelvic floor often leads to a descent of the inner pelvic organs (bladder, uterus, or rectum). Those affected frequently complain of a constant feeling of pressure or a foreign body sensation in the pelvis, incomplete bowel emptying, flatulence, and a persistent feeling of fullness. Early interdisciplinary evaluation prevents more severe long-term consequences.
Diagnostics & Treatment Path
- Specialized diagnostics: Coordination and arrangement of highly specialized examinations in close cooperation with gynecologists and urologists.
- Pelvic floor training: Individual training plans for strengthening the pelvic floor structures.
- Conservative emptying aids: Optimization of stool consistency and physiological positioning therapy during bowel movements.
- Interdisciplinary cooperation: Collaborative care through a well-established network of medical specialists.
