Urinary Incontinence

Urinary incontinence in women is a common condition. It refers to the unintentional leakage of urine, whether a few drops or a significant loss. It occurs due to weakness in the muscles that support the bladder or issues with the urinary sphincters. This condition may be embarrassing and affect the overall quality of life.

Here, we’ll explain urinary incontinence, its symptoms, causes, treatments and more.

Urinary Incontinence: Causes, Types, and Treatments

Expert Insights by Dr Uzma

What is Urinary Incontinence?

Urinary incontinence in women can occur at any age but is most common after childbirth or menopause. This condition refers to involuntary urine leakage–loss of bladder control, varying from minor drops to a significant loss. Bladder control is lost when the pelvic floor muscles weaken, or the urinary sphincters (a ring of muscle around the urethral openings) are compromised. The bladder may become easily irritable or overactive. 

Women face this condition due to ageing, hormonal imbalances, pregnancy, and other lifestyle factors. Urinary incontinence manifests in various forms.

What are the Types of Urinary Incontinence?

The types of urinary incontinence in women are:

Stress Incontinence

This form of urinary incontinence is when pee leaks during activities that pressure the bladder, such as coughing, sneezing, laughing, or exercising.

Urge Incontinence

As the name suggests, this type occurs when you have a sudden and intense urge to pee, leading to leakage before you reach the bathroom. It is also known as ‘overactive bladder.’ A change in position or sexual activity may trigger the urge.

Overflow Incontinence

It occurs when the bladder doesn’t empty completely. It leads to frequent or constant dribbling of urine.

Mixed Incontinence

Mixed urinary incontinence results from stress and urge incontinence. Most women have a mixed picture and may have symptoms of both these types.This means a woman may experience pee leakage due to coughing, sneezing, or a sudden urge to urinate.
