Incontinence is the loss of bladder control and can involve a leakage of urine, wind or faeces.

Urinary incontinence is a very distressing condition that women generally develop later in life though it can occur at any age. Giving birth by natural labour can increase the chances of developing urinary incontinence. There are several types of urinary incontinence – stress urinary incontinence, urge urinary incontinence or overactive bladder and mixed urinary incontinence.
