Incontinence, the loss of bladder and/or bowel control, can have a dramatic impact on one's life. There are ways to manage incontinence, and in many cases cure it. Yet due to the hidden nature of incontinence, many people are not aware of the help available and thus do not seek cure or treatment.

Urinary incontinence means that you can't always control when you urinate (pee). As a result, you wet your pants. This can be embarrassing. But it can be treated.

Incontinence is the involuntary leakage of urine. It can be a short-term or long-term problem. It can range in severity from a slight loss of urine during exercise to total loss of bladder control. Incontinence is common among older adults but is not an inevitable result of aging.
