Labial Fusion in a Postmenopausal Woman Presenting with Urinary Incontinence.
Genitourinary syndrome of menopause refers to the collection of signs and symptoms associated with decrease in estrogen and other sex steroids involving changes in labia majora/minora, clitoris, vestibule/introitus, vagina, urethra, and bladder. This term was coined in 2014 to reduce the stigma associated with genital symptoms after menopause. Our patient is a 65-year-old woman, menopausal for the past 15 years, who presented with dribbling of urine for 1 month. On examination, she was diagnosed with complete labial fusion. Diabetes was incidentally detected and antidiabetic treatment was started. Considering dense labial adhesion, the patient underwent surgical separation of labia under anesthesia. Postoperatively, she was put on topical estrogen therapy and was advised to maintain proper hygiene. She was followed up regularly for a month to prevent refusion.
