This month is urology awareness month, and the theme is bladder leakage. Did you know it is a common problem with 1 in 5 people in the UK experiencing bladder problems and 1 in 3 women living with urinary incontinence.
There are two treatable conditions that our women’s health specialist Jenny frequently sees: stress incontinence, which is when activities such as sneezing, laughing, and exercise cause a little leak of urine, and urge incontinence which is when you feel a sudden and very urgent need to get to the toilet.
If you live with bladder leakage and have been dealing with it alone, take action this month and make an appointment to see Jenny. After an initial assessment, she will design a personalised treatment plan which may include pelvic floor muscle training or lifestyle changes. Whatever the problem, Jenny encourages you to come forward and seek the help you deserve in a supportive and professional environment.
