Description

Urinary incontinence is a symptom and indicates the uncontrollable leakage of urine.
This can produce a lot of discomfort to patients having this disorder or symptom.
Elderly women are more susceptible to it than men.
With a longer life span many elderly patients can be observed being brought to the family doctor clinic wearing adult diapers.
Elderly patients are likely to believe that the only way to prevent embarrassment is to wear absorbent menses pads or padded undergarments like adult diapers.
However the skin wetness may result in rashes, sores, or infections.
Most people with urinary incontinence are women mainly because childbirth weakens the pelvic floor muscles.
Old age in turn such as the menopause produce both weakness and other age related disorders which can affect the period of time the patient can wait once the patient feels the urge to go
Alcoholism and an enlarged prostate can both produce it as well, but childbirth related muscle weakness remains the most frequent cause.
Causes:
With aging, the bladders are not capable of holding as much urine and the sphincter muscles may weaken reducing the body’s ability to stop the urination.
In women the reduction in estrogen after menopause causes the lining of the urethra to be thinner so that it might not close properly permitting urine to leak out.
Childbearing can also raise the danger of forming urinary incontinence.
With age or after vaginal delivery, the pelvic muscles are never as strong as the way they were before birth, particularly after multiple deliveries.
Everyone tend more likely to become incontinent with age because of both the deterioration of the organs and brain
Women have the greater disorder because of childbirth, the menopause and also having a shorter outlet
Other causes:
Diabetes, neurological diseases, and nerve injury
In men and women, urinary incontinence can be due to neurological disorders such as multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, and Parkinson’s disease.
