Introduction

  Urinary incontinence is defined as the involuntary leakage of urine. This condition occurs in both men and women, but is much more frequent in women. It is typically related to dysfunction of urinary bladder or pelvic floor muscles which occur after childbirth or due to ageing related to menopause. In women, there are two main types of urinary incontinence - stress incontinence and urge incontinence.
