Stress Incontinence: A Misnomer?
Stress incontinence is one of several disorders in which urine is unintentionally lost. It is much more common among women than men, and it can result in profound embarrassment if left untreated. Despite the connotations associated with its name, stress incontinence has nothing at all to do with psychological stress. Unfortunately, this condition can convince people that they should not risk being put into social situations.
Staying at home all the time and worrying about embarrassment? That doesn’t sound like any way to live. The Mayo Clinic recommends that sufferers make a list of their personal stress incontinence triggers – whether they be a cough, sneeze, laughter, standing up, physical exertion, etc. – and bring it to a doctor. While surgical options are available, a pair of adult diapers can be an effective short-term solution.
