Stress incontinence, also known as tension incontinence, refers to involuntary leakage of urine from the external urethral orifice during increased abdominal pressure such as sneezing, coughing, and laughing. Stress incontinence can occur at any age, but is more common in obese middle-aged menstruating women. The main reasons for its appearance are related to birth injuries; postmenopausal sex hormone loss resulting in pelvic floor tissue atrophy; perineal and urethral injuries; and increased abdominal pressure and lowered bladder neck position due to intrapelvic masses. Regarding the treatment of stress urinary incontinence, if the symptoms are not very serious, you can improve the function of the urethral sphincter by exercising the pelvic floor muscle groups to improve urinary incontinence. For example, daily exercises to improve the anal lifting exercise, but need to adhere to long-term, generally need four months to six months to have the effect. You also need to adjust your lifestyle, such as losing weight, quitting smoking, and strengthening physical exercise. If necessary, you can use electrical stimulation, magnetic stimulation, medication and other treatments. If the symptoms of urinary incontinence are more serious then surgery is recommended. In summary, stress urinary incontinence can be cured in most cases, but you need to choose the right treatment method by combining the specific cause and the severity of the condition.
