Course Title

Pharmacologic Considerations for the Pelvic Health Provider

Course Description

Pharmacologic agents are often a first line treatment for pelvic floor dysfunction. Most patients seeking treatment for pelvic floor dysfunction are prescribed one or more medications. Medication side effects can contribute to or be the cause of genitourinary issues. It is important that health care providers are knowledgeable about the effects of medications and how the medication itself could be contributing to the patient’s complaints.

This remote learning course will discuss medications used for the treatment of pelvic floor and genitourinary conditions as well as common side effects of medications routinely used for pelvic floor dysfunction. This course will be taught by a live instructor via Zoom. Medications for constipation and GI dysfunction, as well as pelvic pain conditions such as Vulvodynia, Chronic Prostatitis, and Endometriosis will be covered. The course will also cover medications and side effects in Gender-Affirming Care for patients who are transitioning.
