Emsella vs. Pills: What’s More Effective for Treating Urinary Incontinence?

Urinary Incontinence: You Have More Options Than Just Pills

If you’re one of the millions of women or men struggling with urinary leakage, sudden urges, or frequent bathroom trips, chances are you’ve been offered prescription pills to manage your symptoms.

But here’s the truth: medications like oxybutynin or tolterodine often provide only temporary relief—and can come with side effects like dry mouth, constipation, or dizziness.

That’s why more people are turning to Emsella, a breakthrough, non-invasive treatment that strengthens your pelvic floor and targets the root cause of incontinence—not just the symptoms.


What Is Emsella?

Emsella is an FDA-cleared device that uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy to stimulate pelvic floor muscles. In a single 28-minute session, Emsella delivers the equivalent of 11,000 Kegel contractions—all while you remain fully clothed and seated comfortably.

It’s designed to treat:

  • Stress incontinence (leakage from coughing, sneezing, laughing)

  • Urge incontinence (sudden, strong urges to urinate)

  • Mixed incontinence (a combination of both)

Why Many Choose Emsella Over Pills

  1. No Drugs, No Side Effects
    Emsella is drug-free and pain-free. It’s a safe option for those who can’t tolerate medications or don’t want long-term pill use.

  2. Targets the Root Cause
    Rather than masking symptoms, Emsella retrains and strengthens the muscles that control bladder function.

  3. Convenient and Comfortable
    Most patients report improvement after just a few sessions. You can walk in, sit down, and walk out—with no downtime.

  4. Long-Term Results
    Studies show Emsella provides sustained benefits with occasional maintenance sessions—compared to pills, which stop working if you stop taking them.


Who’s a Good Candidate?

You may benefit from Emsella if:

  • You leak when you laugh, sneeze, or jump

  • You experience sudden urges to urinate

  • You’ve recently had a baby or gone through menopause

  • You want a non-surgical, no-pill option
