Urinary incontinence occurs when a person unintentionally leaks urine. While urinary incontinence, also known as overactive bladder, can affect anyone, it is more common in older people, particularly women. Bladder control problems can be humiliating and cause people to avoid normal activities. However, incontinence can frequently be prevented or managed.
Urinary tract infections, vaginal infections, or constipation can all cause incontinence. Some medications can result in temporary bladder control problems. When incontinence lasts longer, bladder or pelvic floor muscle weakness, overactive bladder muscles, damage to bladder nerves caused by diseases, and more are the roots.
