Types of Urinary Incontinence

Do you know the types of urinary incontinence? Education can keep you more informed on incontinence as a whole. Whether you or a loved one are managing incontinence, information is essential. The more information you have, the better you can manage it! Knowledge is power.

Stress incontinence is common in middle-aged women but can happen to anyone. Leakage occurs during movement when pressure is on the bladder. Leakage can happen when someone sneezes, laughs, or exercises.

Urge incontinence is when someone may have the sudden need to urinate. Urge incontinence can result from diabetes, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's disease.

Overflow incontinence is when your bladder does not empty when you urinate. You may dribble or leak after you urinate.

Talk with your doctor about your symptoms to get the treatment.
