General

  • WHAT IS URINARY INCONTINENCE?

    Urinary incontinence is defined as loss of bladder control. Many people experience stress incontinence which is occasional leaking when they cough or sneeze, which is most common among women who gave birth vaginally or those over the age of 65. However, there are other types of incontinence: Urge incontinence due to an overactive bladder when you have the urge but can’t get to the bathroom quickly enough. Overflow incontinence due to overfilling of the bladder with weak or poor bladder contraction or blockage of the urethra. Functional incontinence as a side effect of medications or other health problems. Major risk factors for urinary incontinence are menopause, childbirth, prostate cancer, pelvic surgery and aging.
