[Digestive System] If You Experience Recurring Nausea and Gagging, Check Your Autonomic Nervous System as Well

• Repeated feelings of nausea and retching do not necessarily indicate an autonomic nervous system disorder.
• Causes vary widely and may include gastroenteritis, reflux esophagitis, medication side effects, migraines, pregnancy, and ear disorders. If you experience weight loss, repeated vomiting, vomiting blood, black stools, severe abdominal pain, dehydration, or new neurological symptoms, prompt medical evaluation is essential.
• Some people experience an upset stomach when they wake up in the morning, feel the urge to retch before important events, and postpone meals because even a small amount of food makes them feel nauseous.

[Endometrial Adhesions] If Your Menstrual Flow Has Decreased and You’re Having Trouble Getting Pregnant, Here’s What to Check First

• Endometrial adhesions refer to a condition in which the inner walls of the uterus stick together, which can affect the shape of the uterine cavity or the flow of menstrual blood.
• If your menstrual flow has noticeably decreased or stopped following a D&C after a miscarriage, uterine surgery, or an intrauterine infection, or if you are experiencing recurrent miscarriages or difficulty conceiving, you should consult an OB/GYN to determine whether an evaluation of the uterine cavity is necessary.
• It can be concerning if your menstrual flow decreases significantly compared to before after a miscarriage or childbirth, or if you experience lower abdominal pain around your expected period but have almost no bleeding.

[Urge Incontinence] If You Suddenly Find It Difficult to Hold Your Urine, Check for Urge Incontinence and an Overactive Bladder

• Unlike stress urinary incontinence, which occurs when coughing, urge urinary incontinence is characterized by frequent urination and leakage caused by an overactive bladder.
• Treatment is planned to reduce bladder irritation and simultaneously stabilize the pelvic floor, the autonomic nervous system, and sleep patterns.
• “When I suddenly feel the urge to urinate, I can’t hold it in.” “The moment I arrive home and open the front door, I leak.” Urge incontinence causes embarrassing situations like these to recur repeatedly in daily life.

[Residual Urine Sensation] If you don’t feel completely relieved after urinating, you should consider both residual urine sensation and bladder sensitivity.

• Ulsan When consulting about a sensation of residual urine, it is important to distinguish whether the patient is actually unable to fully empty their bladder or whether they repeatedly experience a sensation of residual urine even though test results show minimal residual urine.
• A sensation of incomplete bladder emptying may occur alongside cystitis, overactive bladder, urethral irritation, pelvic floor tension, constipation, menopausal mucosal changes, and stress.
• By compiling the results of the urinalysis, the voiding diary, and information on whether you experience frequent urination, urinary urgency, or pain, we can examine the underlying cause in greater detail.

[Stress Urinary Incontinence] If you leak urine when you cough, you should check for stress urinary incontinence

• Ulsan Stress urinary incontinence is a condition in which urine leaks when coughing, sneezing, laughing, exercising, or lifting heavy objects.
• Unlike symptoms such as a burning sensation or frequent urge to urinate—which are typical of cystitis—this condition often occurs when increased abdominal pressure weakens the pelvic floor muscles and the support for the urethra.
• Ulsan The most important thing when consulting about stress urinary incontinence is not to look at just one symptom in isolation.
