Not everyone is a good fit for PTNS. You might not be able to use this device if you:

  • Have a pacemaker or implantable defibrillator
  • Have a high chance of bleeding
  • Have nerve damage that affects your tibial nerve or pelvic organs
  • Are pregnant or plan to get pregnant during treatment
