The American Urogynecologic Society (AUGS) and the Canadian Society for Pelvic Medicine (CSPM) are preparing for the annual Pelvic Floor Disorders (PFD) Week, next month. From October 14 through October 17, in Vancouver, Canada, PFD Week is dedicated to advancing urogynecology and reconstructive pelvic surgery. With more than two days packed with educational sessions and research presentations, the annual meeting is also a great time for professional development and networking.
Registration for PFD Week is now open. The event is open to members and non-members, and special discounted rates are offered for students, fellows, residents, affiliates, and more.
Today, we have a rundown of the currently planned sessions and posters focused on menopause and menopause-related topics. Session dates and times are current as of September 15, 2025. For a look at the full PFD Week schedule, visit the event’s official website.
