What is Urodynamics Testing?
Urodynamics testing is a bladder function test that measures how well the bladder, urethra, and pelvic floor muscles store and release urine. This test helps diagnose a range of urinary disorders, including:
- Overactive Bladder (OAB): A condition that causes frequent urges to urinate
- Urinary Incontinence: Uncontrolled leakage of urine due to bladder control issues
- Pelvic Floor Dysfunction: Weak or tight muscles that support bladder function
- Urinary Retention: Difficulty emptying the bladder completely
If you suffer from any of these conditions, urodynamics testing can pinpoint the cause of your symptoms and guide a personalized treatment plan.

What to Expect During Urodynamics Testing
When your doctor recommends urodynamic testing, here’s what you can expect during the procedure:
- Preparation: A small catheter is inserted into your bladder to measure pressure and volume.
- Filling Phase: The bladder is gradually filled with sterile fluid while sensors track bladder function.
- Voiding Phase: You will be asked to empty your bladder while the system records the data.
- Results Analysis: Dr. Poorti Riley or one of her trusted providers will review your results and discuss the most effective treatment options based on your specific condition.
This quick, in-office procedure is typically completed in under an hour, and you can return to normal activities the same day.
Who Should Get Urodynamics Testing?
You may benefit from urodynamics testing if you experience:
- Frequent or sudden urges to urinate
- Accidental urine leakage (incontinence)
- Weak urine stream or difficulty urinating
- Bladder pain or pressure
- Recurring urinary tract infections (UTIs)
Early diagnosis of bladder dysfunction through urodynamics testing allows for more effective treatments, helping you regain control and improve your quality of life.
