As of December 31, 2024, we closed the IUGA Store website. As a replacement for the Store, we have created the IUGA Digital Resource Platform. Through this system, we will offer you high resolution PDF files of the brochures to paid subscribers. Subscribers to this system will have access to print-ready versions of all the brochures that they can take to their local printer to have printed. More information about the IUGA Digital Resource Platform can be found here.

Flip charts and POP Q sticks will now only be available for purchase during the Annual Meeting. The opportunity to purchase these exclusive IUGA products will be built into the Annual Meeting registration and we will bring your purchase to the Meeting, where you can pick it up. We will also have limited copies available on-hand, but we strongly recommend that you place your order in advance. Registration will open in January 2026.

Diverse printed brochures will also be available for on-site purchase. Is there a brochure on a specific topic you’d like to purchase? Please let us know at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

If you’ve been looking for a unique way to gain recognition and advance your career, this is your opportunity!

What is InSpIRE?

InSpIRE is a recognition program—not a certification or accreditation—that acknowledges practitioners who have met standardized levels of theoretical knowledge and practical experience in urogynecology. This recognition highlights those who have achieved key educational milestones and acquired essential expertise in pelvic floor dysfunction.

Who Can Benefit from InSpIRE?

The program is tailored for physicians practicing in countries without an established urogynecology subspecialty. It provides these professionals with a structured pathway for gaining recognition for their knowledge, skills, and commitment to pelvic floor health.

Eligibility Requirements

Applicants must meet the following criteria to be eligible:

• Practice in a country without official urogynecology accreditation.
• Maintain IUGA membership for at least five years before applying.
• Attend two out of the last five IUGA Annual Meetings (virtually or in person).
• Have at least five years of experience as a consultant.
• Be part of a multidisciplinary pelvic floor team.

Application Process

The application window for InSpIRE has been extended to February 8, 2026. Applicants will submit a detailed report outlining their professional experience. An IUGA taskforce will review each application, and successful candidates will receive recognition at the IUGA Annual Meeting and be featured on a dedicated page on the IUGA website.

If you are ready to elevate your career and earn recognition for your expertise, this is your chance!
