Damage to the muscles or nerves of the bladder that control holding or passing pee can result in urinary incontinence. In women, urine incontinence is common during pregnancy, menopause, and childbirth.

There are some other factors that contribute to urine incontinence; These include:

  • Obesity
  • Constipation
  • Medications
  • Caffeine
  • UTI infections

There is no connection between psychological stress and incontinence. The urinary muscles are unable to stop urine leaking. It typically occurs while you run, cough, or sneeze. All of these motions create pressure (stress) on the bladder, which leads to unexpected urinary leaks.

  • Doing pelvic floor exercises
  • Treating constipation on time
  • Cutting alcohol, tobacco, and caffeine
  • Avoid lifting heavy weights
