Botulinum toxin for urogenital conditions
Abstract
Botulinum neurotoxin has been shown to be effective when used in the management of lower urinary tract dysfunction, prostatic disorders and more recently vaginismus in women suffering with pelvic floor muscle tension. Here we provide an overview of the use and efficacy of botulinum toxin in these conditions.
