Urge Urinary Incontinence

This is urinary leaking that occurs with a strong urge to urinate and sometimes an overactive bladder.  Most patients describe their leaking as, “I just can’t hold it” and may leak with triggers such as hearing running water, arriving home, stepping into the shower, and other activities.  Resolving urge incontinence includes bladder training, managing fluid intake, and ensuring healthy pelvic floor muscle range of motion.
