The study is designed to address the disparity in available conservative/behavioral treatments for UI/LUTS. The program was developed by experts from urogynecology, psychology, and physical therapy then modified based on focus group feedback from racially minoritized women. The study team created a patient-centered, culturally adapted, self-directed, 8-week, home-based module for women with LUTS/UI. The SUPPORT program combines multiple evidence-based conservative treatments for LUTS/UI including cognitive behavioral therapy, behavioral modifications, and home physical therapy exercise. Progression through the home-based program is supported by research staff. This prospective interventional study aims to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the SUPPORT program and its impact on patient-centered treatment outcomes, while enabling comparisons across race and ethnicity. This approach will provide a comprehensive understanding of how to effectively deliver self-management strategies for pelvic floor disorders. At the start of the 8 week SUPPORT course participants will also be given access to a custom programmed GPT trained on the SUPPORT workbook and given instructions on empathetic communication techniques and assisting patients in performing the SUPPORT exercises as outlined in the program. At the end of 8 weeks patients will fill out a survey assessing the frequency of use and interactions with the LLM.

This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy of ozarelix compared to placebo in the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in men as assessed by the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) at Week 14.
The lower urinary tract (bladder, bladder neck, urethra and urethral sphincter) has two functions: Storage (Continence) and voiding (micturition). Lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) includes symptoms in the storage phase (such as urinary frequency, urgency, incontinence) or micturition phase (such as voiding dysfunction, hesitancy and urinary retention), or both. Proper urinary tract function is controlled by a complex network of peripheral and central nervous system. A delicate and complex switch exists between storage of urine and elimination of urine and in humans, the control over this switch is located in brain stem. Although significant research efforts have been utilized to understand supraspinal neural control of LUTs in humans, our understanding of the brainstem in humans is very limited, mainly due to the small size of nuclei. The extensive involvement of the brainstem in LUTS control has urged us to look into a better way to investigate and identify the brainstem nuclei involved throughout the entire bladder cycle, especially in neurogenic patients. To our knowledge, there has been no published study using high-resolution MRI (7 Tesla) to study the role of brainstem specifically in LUT. Brainstem evaluation in regards to LUT function in a thorough and accurate manner using high-resolution techniques is of high priority for benign urology and National Institute of Health. The findings from this proposal will lay the foundation to study of brainstem control in the bladder cycle in neurogenic patients with high-resolution neuroimaging, and will be seminal research in the field. The investigators hypothesize that Grey matter (blood-oxygen-level-dependent BOLD) signals and functional connectivity (FC) evaluation of the brainstem regions involved in continence and micturition are superior in 7T when compared to 3T in humans allowing assessment of the variations between men and women. Brainstem Regions of Interest (ROIs) include Pontine Storage Center (PSC) ("L region of the pons) and PAG are expected to be activated during the storage (continence) phase and Pontine Micturition Center (PMC) ("M" region of the pons) are expected to be activated during the voiding (micturition) phase.
This is a single center, prospective, investigational study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of prostatic artery embolization (PAE) for the treatment of moderate to severe lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Embolization will be performed with LC Bead LUMI particles using a balloon occlusion microcatheter or standard microcatheter.
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) affects the storage and voiding phases of the micturition cycle. Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) refers to storage symptoms such as urinary frequency, urgency, urge urinary incontinence and nocturia. Surgical options for bladder outlet obstruction (BOO), including prostate ablation and transurethral resection, are currently offered for symptomatic improvement. However, 30% of patients report persistent LUTS after BOO procedures. Neuroplasticity induced by BPH and BOO can be contributory of persistent LUTS in these men, having different brain activation patterns during the micturition cycle. The investigators proposed unique multimodal functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) study that will identify for the first time, structural and functional brain contributions to LUTS in men with BPH and BOO at baseline and following BOO procedures. The investigators hypothesize that men with symptomatic BPH who have persistent LUTS following BOO procedures have a distinct brain activation pattern in Regions of Interest (RoI) that regulate the micturition cycle.
Prostatic artery embolization with Embosphere Microspheres is a relatively new procedure. The goal of this post market study is to evaluate long-term safety and effectiveness in a 'real world' setting.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of a single treatment of PRX302 for the treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) as compared to placebo.
The purpose of this study is to determine if transurethral photodynamic therapy with lemuteporfin has a therapeutic effect on lower urinary tract symptoms due to an enlarged prostate. Photodynamic therapy (known as "PDT") is a treatment that uses light to make a drug work. This means the drug is "light-activated". Light-activated drugs do not work until a certain color of light shines on the drug. When the drug and the light combine, they react together to destroy tissue. This study is investigating PDT with lemuteporfin as a possible treatment for an enlarged prostate. PDT with lemuteporfin may destroy overgrown prostate tissue and help urinary symptoms go back to normal.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effect of a supplement called MitoQ (mitoquinol mesylate) on bladder symptoms such as urgency and frequency in women 50 years and older who have the metabolic syndrome. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is the study design feasible and acceptable to participants? * Do participants taking the study drug get any improvement to their bladder symptoms compared to participants taking a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug)? Participants will take 2 capsules of the study drug every morning for 4 months, answer many questions about their health including questions about their bladder health, perform physical and cognitive testing, give blood and urine samples, collect urine over 24 hour periods 3 times over the 4 months of the study, complete 3 day bladder diaries about how much they drink and void, undergo electrocardiograms, have their vitals and measurements (weight, height, waist circumference) taken, participate in 4 visits to the clinical research area and participate in many phone calls of varying length. Researchers will compare participants who were taking capsules containing MitoQ and participants taking capsules not containing MitoQ to see if MitoQ improves their bladder symptoms (urgency, frequency, nocturia, incontinence, etc.)
The purpose of this research is to develop an ultrasound (US) based urodynamics (UDS) evaluation of voiding based on successful magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-UDS evaluation.
