Urinary incontinence is the unintentional leakage of urine, often caused by factors such as weakened pelvic floor muscles, nerve damage, or an overactive bladder.
The main types of urinary incontinence include stress incontinence, urge incontinence, overflow incontinence, and functional incontinence.
Symptoms of urinary incontinence include leaking urine during activities such as coughing or sneezing, sudden strong urges to urinate, and frequent urination.
Lifestyle changes such as bladder training; pelvic floor exercises, maintaining a healthy weight, and avoiding bladder irritants can help manage urinary incontinence.
Treatment options for urinary incontinence include anticholinergic medication, pelvic floor physical therapy and bladder training techniques.
Anticholinergic medications work by relaxing the bladder muscles, reducing urinary urgency and frequency.
Common side effects of anticholinergic medication may include dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, and dizziness.
