Major Updates planned for Wiki Education MEDU 9330 assignment

Lead Updates

1. Rework first half of lead to include more complete picture of causes of urethral hypermobility and brief treatment of stress urinary incontinence
2. The source Serdinšek, Tamara; But, Igor (July 2017), is a primary source study and should not be included according to WikieProject Medicine guidelines. I plan to remove this and hopefully find a secondary source that can cover similar information about diagnosis of urethral hypermobility.
3. The last sentence of the current lead mentions a single treatment for urethral hypermobility but it is not even the most effective treatment. Will replace this with a more balanced discussion of treatments.

Expand article with standardized structure

Several review articles have been published in last 5 years about Stress Urinary Incontinence and Pelvic Floor Dysfunction, and Physical Therapy and Surgical treatment strategies for urethral hypermobility.

I plan to include sections on: epidemiology, causes, mechanism, diagnosis, treatment, outcomes, and future research directions.
