Pelvic
floor disorders alleviated at Penn Women's FIRST Clinic
Talking
about pelvic floor disorders (PFD) can be challenging for many women because it
is a delicate topic. However, the truth is that these illnesses can
significantly lower quality of life, and as a result, a lot of women suffer in
silence.

Fortunately,
the Penn Women's Fully Integrated Rectovaginal Symptom Team (FIRST) clinic
offers hope to women suffering from pelvic floor disorders. A group of female
physicians founded the clinic in 2021 with the express purpose of assisting
women with PFDs in a welcoming and encouraging setting.
"We are
aware that discussing pelvic floor disorders can be challenging," said
Farzana Rashid, MD, the FIRST Clinic's director and director of Penn Women's GI
Health. "The goal of our team of female doctors is to create a secure
environment in which patients can talk freely about their symptoms and worries.
We think we can give patients a sense of empowerment and control over their
health by making a warm and inviting environment."
Why Pay
a Visit to the FIRST Clinic?
PFDs are
common, even though they are rarely discussed. Up to 1 in 4 women will
encounter PFD at some point in their lives, and the frequency rises with age.
Pelvic floor
disorders can arise during or after pregnancy and
childbirth, presenting with symptoms such as constipation, abdominal
discomfort, and problems with the bladder and bowel, such as fecal or urine
incontinence. PFD symptoms have the potential to seriously lower your quality
of life and even cause depression.
"At
the Penn Women's FIRST Clinic, our goal is to make patients feel better
faster and improve their quality of life by bringing together multiple
disciplines to address their pelvic floor disorders in one place," said
Dr. Rashid. "We are aware that these conditions can be complicated and
have an impact on a variety of areas of patients' lives.
Three female
doctors simultaneously evaluate patients at the Penn Women's FIRST Clinic: a
urogynecologist, a colorectal surgeon, and a gastroenterologist. The FIRST
Clinic treats the following conditions:
