Urinary incontinence is the involuntary loss of bladder control, often leading to unexpected leaks during daily activities like laughing, sneezing, coughing, or exercising. It can range from a mild inconvenience to a more persistent issue that significantly impacts your quality of life.
A weakened pelvic floor is typically the cause of this condition. The pelvic floor is a group of muscles and connective tissues that support your bladder, uterus, and other pelvic organs. When these muscles lose strength or coordination, they cannot effectively control the release of urine, leading to unwanted leaks.
Several factors contribute to urinary incontinence, including childbirth, hormonal changes during menopause, aging, or even chronic stress. Hormonal shifts, like those that happen during menopause, can further reduce muscle tone and affect bladder control. Beyond the physical symptoms, urinary incontinence can also take an emotional toll.
Many people living with this condition may feel embarrassed, avoid social activities, or struggle silently with the frustration of unpredictable leaks.
