FAQ
What’s the best treatment for me?
It’s
never too late or too early to take charge of your health. There are
many treatments available: physiotherapy, surgery, medication. To find
the best treatment for you, you need to determine what type of urinary
incontinence you suffer from. This diagnosis should be made by a
healthcare professional.
I’m menopausal. Will I suffer from urinary incontinence?
At menopause, oestrogen levels drop, and that can increase the probability of urinary incontinence, since the vaginal and pelvic floor muscles weaken. There are simple methods to prevent this situation, the most common being Kegel exercices.
I’ve never had kids. Does that mean I won’t suffer from urinary incontinence?
Not exactly. Even if you have never been pregnant, your pelvic organs (bladder, vagina, and uterus) may move slightly as you age, especially if you are constipated or cough frequently. This can lead to bladder problems, including urinary incontinence.
