Short time efficacy and safety of focused monopolar radiofrequency device for labial laxity improvement-noninvasive labia tissue tightening. A prospective cohort study.

To evaluate safety and efficacy of focused monopolar radio frequency (RF) device for non‐invasive labia tissue tightening and improvement of labial laxity.

Baseline ICIQ-UI score, body mass index, age, average birth weight, and perineometry duration as promising predictors of the short-term efficacy of Er:YAG laser treatment in stress urinary incontinent women: A prospective cohort study: Er:YAG LASER EFFICACY IN FEMALE SUI PATIENTS

A growing body of evidence indicates that a non‐invasive erbium yttrium‐aluminum‐garnet (Er:YAG) laser may be an effective and highly tolerable treatment for stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women. The primary objective was to identify pre‐intervention predictors of short‐term Er:YAG outcomes. The secondary objective was to identify patient segments with the best Er:YAG laser treatment short‐term outcomes.

educational status were not correlated with the total Greene score, nor the vasomotor subscore. However, regular physical activity was associated with lower total Greene score (18.1±11.6 vs. 23.8±11.8) (p=0.01) and specifically lower psychological subscore (8.9±6.1 vs. 11.9±7.1) (p=0.03). Moreover, it was demonstrated that the higher the frequency of exercise the lower the severity of the climacteric symptoms. Linear regression models showed that only regular exercise was significantly correlated with a better total Greene score (p=0.006) independent of the menopausal status. Particularly, regular exercise was significantly correlated with better psychological (p=0.006) and physical subscores (p=0.06), yet the vasomotor and sexual subscores remained unchanged. Conclusions: Regular exercise was found to be the only lifestyle parameter to be associated with the severity of climacteric symptoms, especially the emotional symptoms. This finding might be used to encourage perimenopausal women to be actively engaged in physical activity beyond the well recognized virtues associated with exercise.
