Treating Stress Urinary Incontinence

Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is sneaky, uncontrollable and can happen at any given moment when coughing sneezing, jumping, exercising or even laughing. There are over 8 million women in the US alone suffering with this condition! No one can deny how embarrassing it would be to leak urine in public after laughing at a dinner party or during an exercise class.  This anxiety of public embarrassment often inhibits a woman’s ability to enjoy social events leading to a lesser quality of life. Research has suggested that nearly 62% of women wait a year or longer before discussing this condition with their doctor.

What leads to this condition?

Stress urinary incontinence is the involuntary loss of urine due to any intra-abdominal pressure that puts stress on the bladder. SUI occurs when the pelvic muscles surrounding the bladder and urethra have been damaged or weakened. For the most part, incontinence typically occurs after a woman goes through child birth however there are some other physical changes that may lead to this condition including:
