Search for appropriate help, speak with people you trust. Search for a healthcare expert and speak with him about your symptoms. has therefore established this little guide, to help you recognize your symptoms and find solutions; so that you will be able to experience freedom and well-being again every day of your life. What does incontinence mean? Let us change our habits Incontinence stands for an uncontrollable loss of urine and/or defecation.

3 Incontinence - practical guide Different types of incontinence Stress incontinence Stress incontinence is caused by the pelvic muscles or sphincter being damaged which can cause the bladder to leak when it comes under physical stress. This can occur during many different types of movement including laughing, coughing or sneezing. Lifting heavy objects can also apply pressure on the bladder and cause stress incontinence. Stress incontinence is quite common in women who have given birth multiple times. Urge Incontinence Urge urinary incontinence occurs when the need to urinate comes on so quickly that you might fail to make it to the bathroom in time. Also known as overactive bladder or spastic bladder, this sudden need to urinate can be intense and frequent. The amount of urine in the bladder does not matter when it comes to urge incontinence. The nerves communicate a need to urinate, and the ability to inhibit this urge is compromised. The bladder spasms on its own and pushes the urine out. Urge Incontinence is usually marked with a frequent need to urinate and bed wetting. It can also be triggered by drinking even a small amount of water or the sound of running water. Overflow Incontinence Overflow Incontinence is typically caused by incorrect signal relay to the brain of how full the bladder is. The bladder becomes overly full and simply overflows. The symptoms are numerous and varied but include the loss of small amounts of urine throughout the day, the desire to empty your bladder when unable to do so, feeling the bladder is still full after urinating and passing a weak dribbling stream of urine. Reflex Incontinence Reflex incontinence is caused by a problem in the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord). Common disorders associated with reflex incontinence include stroke, Parkinson s disease, and brain tumors.
