Urinary Incontinence Health Centre
Coping

Urinary incontinence can be an embarrassing and emotionally difficult condition. If left untreated, it can lead to social isolation and depression. Women living with incontinence may find themselves avoiding work and social situations because they are worried that they may have an "accident." Urinary incontinence can be treated and, in most cases, controlled; sometimes it can be cured.

You can play an active role in your own treatment. There are a number of non-medical methods that may help improve your bladder control. These methods do not involve surgery or medication, and pose little or no risks of side effects.

You can also join Le Club and receive support from other women in our moderated online discussion groups.
