Please ask yourself these questions:
•When you laugh, sneeze, cough or exercise, do you sometimes leak a small amount of urine? •Are you ever “caught short” by a sudden, strong urge to pass urine? •Do you arrange your daily routine around where the nearest toilets will be? •Do you wake twice or more during the night to go to the toilet? •Do you experience bowel problems such as soiling, urgency, poor wind control, or difficulty emptying? •Have you given up enjoyable activities – like walking, aerobics or dancing – because of fear of bladder leakage or loss of bowel control? Incontinence Management
If your answer to all or to most of these questions is a “Yes,” then you might be suffering from incontinence. Any unwanted or involuntary leakage of urine is not normal, however you can get help.
