In control? Understanding bladder leakage

Episode #3

One of the most common diagnoses we see as pelvic floor PTs is urinary incontinence. This diagnosis is surprisingly very common affecting at least 50% of the vulva owners which increases in prevalence to 75% in women over the age of 65. Unfortunately many of us have been told “that’s the price of child birth” or “that’s just part of getting older”. While child birth and aging has its affects on the pelvic floor, it doesn’t mean that urinary incontinence has to be what you deal with. There are many treatments including pelvic floor PT that can help decrease leakage if not completely eliminate it.Follow us @thev.movementJoin our newsletter or email us [email protected] introduction music provided by POW/Sunset Beach/courtesy of www.epidemicsound.comFind a PT near you!Resources:The V Movement’s Bladder Diary HandoutNational Association for Continence Bladder Diary
