URINARY INCONTINENCE TREATMENT IN ISTANBUL – EUROPEAN SIDE
Modern, Gentle and Effective Solutions for Women’s Health
Rejuvenation and Confidence with Dr. Sezgin Dursun.
Urinary incontinence, or the unintentional leakage of urine, is a condition that affects millions of women around the world, yet remains one of the least discussed. Many women living on the European Side of Istanbul silently cope with bladder control problems, believing they are an inevitable part of childbirth, menopause, or aging. In reality, urinary incontinence is not a natural or permanent condition — it can be treated successfully with modern, safe, and minimally invasive therapies.
At our European Side clinic, Dr. Sezgin Dursun provides advanced, patient-centered care designed to restore comfort, control, and confidence. Our approach blends science, compassion, and technology to help women regain their quality of life.
Our clinic ensures privacy, comfort, and professional guidance from the first consultation to full recovery. Every woman receives a personalized plan built on understanding, precision, and trust.
TYPES OF URINARY INCONTINENCE
-
Stress Incontinence – Urine leakage occurs during activities like coughing, laughing, or exercising due to weak pelvic muscles.
-
Urge Incontinence – A sudden, intense urge to urinate that leads to leakage, often caused by overactive bladder muscles.
-
Mixed Incontinence – A combination of stress and urge incontinence, common in middle-aged women.
-
Overflow Incontinence – Continuous dribbling of urine due to incomplete bladder emptying.
-
Functional Incontinence – Occurs when mobility or neurological issues prevent reaching the toilet in time.
Accurate diagnosis of the incontinence type is essential to choosing the best and most effective treatment.
COMMON CAUSES
Urinary incontinence may develop due to pregnancy, vaginal birth, menopause, hormonal changes, pelvic surgeries, or chronic coughing. Obesity, constipation, aging, and neurological conditions may also contribute.
When estrogen levels decrease during menopause, the tissues that support the bladder and urethra lose strength and elasticity, making leakage more likely. Recognizing the cause allows us to tailor treatment specifically to your needs.
DIAGNOSIS AND EVALUATION
At our European Side clinic, we begin with a thorough consultation and medical assessment. Dr. Sezgin Dursun and his team will review your symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle to determine the root cause.
Diagnostic tests may include urinalysis, bladder diaries, urodynamic testing, ultrasound imaging, and pelvic floor muscle evaluations.
The goal is to identify the underlying issue accurately and create a plan that addresses both the physical and emotional aspects of incontinence. Our clinic ensures full confidentiality, a calm environment, and clear explanations at every step.
MODERN TREATMENT OPTIONS
We offer a complete range of modern, minimally invasive treatments for urinary incontinence on Istanbul’s European Side. All therapies are evidence-based, safe, and customized for each patient.
1. Lifestyle and Behavioral Therapy
Simple lifestyle changes often make a big difference:
-
Pelvic floor muscle strengthening (Kegel exercises)
-
Bladder training and scheduled voiding routines
-
Weight management and proper hydration
-
Reducing caffeine and alcohol intake
These conservative measures help improve bladder control naturally and can serve as the foundation of further treatment.
2. Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation
Pelvic floor rehabilitation uses guided exercises, physiotherapy, and biofeedback to strengthen the muscles that support the bladder and urethra. This method is especially beneficial after childbirth or menopause and helps women regain natural muscle tone and function.
3. Medication
For patients with urge incontinence or overactive bladder, certain medications — such as antimuscarinic agents or beta-3 agonists — can relax the bladder muscles and reduce symptoms. Hormonal creams containing estrogen may also improve vaginal and urethral tissue elasticity for postmenopausal women.
4. Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation Therapy
Laser vaginal rejuvenation is a modern, non-surgical approach to stress urinary incontinence. The gentle laser energy stimulates collagen production in the vaginal walls, improving tissue strength and elasticity. This strengthens bladder and urethral support, significantly reducing urine leakage.
Each session lasts about 15 to 20 minutes, requires no anesthesia, and has no recovery time. Patients can immediately return to normal activities.
The procedure also improves vaginal lubrication, elasticity, and comfort — enhancing both medical outcomes and overall well-being.
5. Minimally Invasive Surgery
When non-surgical methods are not sufficient, small surgical procedures can provide long-term relief. These include:
-
Mid-urethral sling (TVT/TOT) to support the urethra and prevent leakage
-
Urethral bulking injections to improve closure pressure
-
Colposuspension to reposition the bladder neck
All procedures are performed under high medical standards with short recovery periods and long-lasting results.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING TREATMENT
Your treatment begins with a detailed consultation and examination. After diagnosis, Dr. Dursun will create a personalized plan that may include lifestyle modifications, pelvic exercises, laser rejuvenation, or minor surgical interventions.
Laser therapy typically requires one to three sessions, each lasting less than half an hour. Most patients report noticeable improvement after the first session.
Because laser treatment requires no anesthesia or downtime, you can resume normal activities the same day. The results are gradual but long-lasting as collagen continues to regenerate in the treated tissues.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is laser treatment painful?
No. The procedure is painless and requires no anesthesia or downtime.
How long does the effect last?
Most patients experience long-lasting improvement. Follow-up and pelvic floor exercises can help maintain results.
