Urinary Incontinence in Older Adults

 

Urinary incontinence means a person leaks urine by accident. While it can happen to anyone, urinary incontinence, also known as overactive bladder, is more common in older people, especially women. Bladder control issues can be embarrassing and cause people to avoid their normal activities. But incontinence can often be stopped or controlled.

 

The internet is "awash" with information - (must be a bigger problem than I realised).

 

Here is a sensible web site about the subject, with a lot of information and no advertising. (Its a United States Government site - but don't hold that against them).

I didn't even know there was a National Institute on Aging!
