Pelvic floor dysfunction is a term applied to a broad collection of conditions affecting the pelvic organs. These include urinary incontinence, neuro-urologic disorders, pelvic organ prolapse, fecal incontinence, defecatory dysfunction and inflammatory bowel disorders. While they affect both men and women, they are generally more common in women.
