Women with symptoms of voiding dysfunction may be associated with detrusor underactivity (DU) or bladder outlet obstruction (BOO). The treatment strategies are different between DU and BOO. In general, urodynamic/videourodynamic studies are important for differential diagnosis. However, urodynamic/videourodynamic studies are invasive. The investigators are interested in whether there were specific symptoms or measurements that can be used for initial differential diagnosis between DU and BOO. Thus, the aim of this study was to elucidate the prevalence of DU and BOO in each age group and elucidate the clinical and urodynamic differences between the DU, BOO and non-DU/BOO groups.
