MaineHealth Urogynecology South Portland provides comprehensive evaluation and treatment for pelvic floor disorders. Your pelvic floor includes the muscles, ligaments and connective tissue in the lower pelvis that provide support to your body and help your organs function properly. Weakness or nerve dysfunction in the pelvic floor can affect your bladder, uterus, vagina and/or rectum.
