Introduction

Urinary incontinence is defined as the loss of voluntary bladder control and results in urine “leakage”. This is most embarrassing particularly for women and it seems to occur more often when one is laughing, coughing, lifting heavy objects, sneezing, vigorous exercise, or even just running to catch  a bus.

 

Possible Predisposing Causes of Urinary Incontinence

  • Bladder Sphincter Muscle Weakness.
  • Side effects of prescription medicines such as hypnotics, antipsychotics, Calcium channel blockers and antihistamines to name a few
  • Urinary tract infections
  • Constipation
  • Obesity
  • Diabetes
  • Nerve damage due to stroke, multiple sclerosis, parkinson’s disease, or spinal cord injury
  • Dementia including Alzheimers disease
  • Previous hysterectomy, urethral surgery, or pelvic organ prolapse
  • Having been pregnant multiple times

 

Urinary incontinence may be only temporary or it may become chronic in nature. This is particularly the case if there is permanent nerve damage.

Sometimes a relatively “healthy person” loses bladder control following a strong urge to urinate and is simply unable to make it to the bathroom in time. This kind of incontinence is supposedly due to an “overactive bladder”. In reality it is more likely to be due to poor bladder sphincter muscle control and or weakness.
