Treating Sexual & Bladder Dysfunction in Patients with MS

In this issue:

Sexual and bladder/urinary dysfunctions affect nearly 50% of individuals with MS. But these conditions often go unrecognized and (therefore) untreated, leading to decreased quality of life. How can clinicians more accurately diagnose these conditions? What do they need to know to recommend the best treatment options for each patient?

Join our guest authors from the Cleveland Clinic’s Department of Neurology, Dr. Lindsay Ross and Dr. Elizabeth Page, as we discuss the current evidence about identifying sexual and bladder/urinary dysfunctions and the available treatment options  in this issue of eMultipleSclerosis Review.

Learning objective:

Discuss the prevalence and potential treatments for sexual and bladder dysfunction in people with MS.
