Urinary incontinence is the unintentional loss of bladder control, resulting in the leakage of urine. It can range from occasional dribbling when coughing or sneezing to a sudden, strong urge to urinate that prevents reaching a restroom in time. Commonly affecting older adults, urinary incontinence can occur in both men and women due to various causes, including weakened pelvic muscles, medical conditions, or certain medications.

It can be uncomfortable and sometimes embarrassing, urinary incontinence is a treatable condition with lifestyle changes, medical therapies, and interventions designed to restore bladder control and improve quality of life.

UI CAN BE VERY ISOLATING

Feeling alone with urinary incontinence is a common yet deeply isolating experience for many individuals. Despite the fact that millions of people struggle with bladder control issues, the stigma and embarrassment surrounding the condition often prevent open discussions or seeking help.
