"The condition of incontinence more often associated with age and no one was willing to admit he was getting older. In fact, one of three women who experience urinary disorders are aged under 35 years," says Jacqueline Thielen, MD, women's health consultant from the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine in Rochester, United States.

How suffering from this disease if we are experiencing. Women experience urinary incontinence twice as often than men. This is due to women experiencing the process of pregnancy, childbirth, menopause, and the structure of the bladder differ from men. Urinary incontinence in women is usually caused by weakness of the pelvic floor muscles that support the urinary tract and muscle door urinary tract (urethra) that just came out of urine overpowering.

According to Thielen, to urinate without being able to be controlled are the things that are not normal, but quite often experienced by women who will enter menopause. Women who have never had a normal delivery are also prone to incontinence. This situation is related to the weakening of the pelvic supporting tissue. Other risk factors are overweight, certain drugs, and some health problems, such as diabetes and Parkinson's.

Normally, the bladder can hold about 300 cc of urine. Once the bladder is full, feeling to urinate starts. However, normally without any discomfort, urgency, pain, and incontinence.

Although disturbing, incontinence is not medically dangerous. However, this condition can be overcome. In many cases, the ability to control the bladder can be improved by treating the cause or change the daily habits.

Sometimes, with the adjustment of daily habits, such as more frequently to the toilet to urinate or restricting liquids before bedtime, can help. When the exercise voiding can not help, your doctor will prescribe drugs or surgery for it.
