- Urinary IncontinenceThe involuntary loss of urine is called urinary incontinence (UI) and many more women than men suffer from this problem. Symptoms can differ in that a woman might lose a few drops of urine while running or coughing and others can feel a strong, sudden urge to urinate just prior to losing a large amount of urine. Many women experience both symptoms.
- PregnancyPregnancy and childbirth, menopause, and the structure of the female urinary tract account for the fact that women are faced with UI much more than men. It is possible for women and men to become incontinent from neurological injury, birth defects, stroke, multiple sclerosis, and the physical problems that can come with aging.
