If you think that your only hope for treating overactive bladder is to focus on your pelvic floor muscles, you may be overlooking a different type of approach that's been proven successful for hundreds of thousands of patients: Nerve stimulation.

It turns out that certain nerves play a critical role in bladder function, and there are devices that can stimulate those nerves to substantially reduce leaks. Many patients find that their symptoms improve by 50% or more with a simple, in-office procedure called sacral neuromodulation.

Today's guest is Dr. Vikas Desai, a urologist, a board-certified member of the American Urologic Association and a member of the Society of Prosthetic Urologic Surgeons, to tell us more about it.

To learn more from Dr. Desai about bladder health, visit his YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@DesaiUro.
