Bladder leakage, or urinary incontinence (UI), affects women and men of all ages.  The good news is that incontinence is generally a very treatable problem.  Don’t just live with urinary incontinence, learn about the causes and what you can do about it.  How can you decrease leaks and urgencies?  Why do leaks and urgencies occur?  How does lifestyle affect bladder control?
