Consider it a typical symptom of stress incontinence. Stress incontinence refers to the uncontrolled leakage of urine caused by increased abdominal pressure (such as coughing, laughing, hiccups, lifting heavy objects, or quickly walking or climbing stairs). It is necessary to visit the urology department of a hospital for examination to facilitate diagnosis.The treatment of stress incontinence includes two major categories: non-surgical methods and surgical methods. Non-surgical methods are more effective for younger women and those with mild urinary incontinence after exercise, including behavioral therapy, physical therapy, pelvic floor muscle exercises, functional electrical stimulation, and medication. Pelvic floor muscle exercises are a simple and commonly used method. Perform conscious contractions and relaxations of the anal and perineal muscles at fixed times each day, such as tightening and releasing the anus. Repeat this action, with each set consisting of about 20 repetitions, and perform 5–10 sets daily. The goal is to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles and urethral muscles. Mild cases can stabilize symptoms, while severe cases can reduce the need for surgery, with no adverse effects. If you have severe stress incontinence, surgical treatment should be considered.
