Cedars-Sinai urology experts will present their latest advances in urologic medicine at the annual scientific meeting of the American Urological Association (AUA) in New Orleans May 13-16, 2022.

Among over 2,200 abstracts, one by Alexandra Dubinskaya, MD, a female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery (FPMRS) specialist—Is It Time for FPMRS to Prescribe Vibrators?—was selected to be included in the 117th AUA press session on May 13, 2022, at 9 a.m. CT.

Dubinskaya's presentation will take a deeper look at the potential pelvic health benefits of vibrators and explore if their use should be recommended to treat women with pelvic floor disorder.

Additional abstracts from Cedars-Sinai physicians will address robotic surgery, prostate cancer treatment, bladder pain syndrome and women's sexual health.
