02What it is

Urinary incontinence is involuntary urine leakage, causing unexpected and uncontrollable bladder voiding that can range from mild to severe. Common types include stress incontinence (leakage on coughing, sneezing or exercise), urge incontinence (a sudden intense urge), overflow, functional and mixed incontinence. It is common and treatable.

03Who it's for

For women experiencing leakage with coughing, sneezing or exercise, a sudden urgent need to pass urine, frequent dribbling, or pelvic pressure and repeated urinary infections. It is often linked to pregnancy, childbirth, menopause, pelvic organ prolapse, chronic constipation or nerve-related conditions.

04How we diagnose

Dr. Mustafa Aldam reviews your symptoms, medical and obstetric history and daily impact, then examines the pelvic floor and, where needed, arranges urine tests or further assessment to identify the type of incontinence. This determines the most effective treatment.

05How we treat

Treatment usually starts with conservative measures — lifestyle and dietary adjustments, reduced caffeine and alcohol, pelvic floor (Kegel) exercises and bladder training. Where needed, medications to relax or support the bladder are added, and minimally invasive or surgical options such as slings or bulking agents are considered for stubborn cases.

Good to know

Questions, answered

It is common after pregnancy and childbirth, but it is treatable and should not be ignored if it affects daily life.

Usually not. Most women improve with lifestyle changes, pelvic-floor exercises and bladder training; surgery is only considered when conservative care isn't enough.

They are pelvic-floor exercises that strengthen the muscles supporting the bladder, and they are a cornerstone of treatment for stress incontinence.

Yes. Hormonal changes at menopause can weaken pelvic support and contribute to leakage, which we assess and treat.

Stress incontinence is leakage from pressure such as coughing or exercise, while urge incontinence is a sudden intense urge followed by leakage. Treatment differs, so identifying the type matters.
