Abstract

Abstract Purpose of Review In this review, we discuss the available literature regarding the intersection of female sexual function and overactive bladder (OAB). Specifically, this review includes how OAB and its treatments affect female sexual function and quality of life. Recent Findings Women suffering from overactive bladder have worse sexual function, and there are multiple prospective studies evaluating sexual function before and after overactive bladder treatment. Summary There is a growing body of evidence demonstrating that traditional overactive bladder treatments not only improve OAB but can also improve sexual function.
