Urinary incontinence is a loss of control of the bladder. In some cases, it may result in a total loss of the bladderâs contents or it may just cause minor leakage. The condition may be temporary or chronic, depending on its cause.
Incontinence can be a short-term problem caused by a urinary tract infection, a medicine, or constipation. It gets better when you treat the problem that is causing it. But this topic focuses on ongoing urinary incontinence.
