How does urine leakage happen?
Urinary loss (also called urinary incontinence) is usually caused by one or two factors. For example, it could be that the muscles around the bladder and urethra are too weak or are functioning less well. This often occurs after pregnancy and childbirth. Another cause of urine leakage can be that the bladder is too active. It is often not clear what causes this. You may be suffering from one or both of the causes.
What can i do about urine leakage?
There is no harm in urine loss. Yet many women experience it as unpleasant. Unfortunately, it almost never disappears on its own. Pelvic floor exercises are often recommended to help with weakened muscles around the bladder and urethra. These exercises improve the functioning of the muscles that help hold urine, reducing urine loss. It is important to do these exercises correctly, otherwise it will usually not work. Contact your doctor or a special pelvic floor physiotherapist to see what works well for you. In the meantime, we recommend, for example, a Very Lady to use. This way you feel much fresher. It is also advisable to lead a healthy life, not to smoke, to get enough exercise and to drink enough. But what if urine loss doesn’t decrease with pelvic floor exercises?
