It is also referred to as \u00ab\u00a0overactive\u00a0\u00bb or \u00ab\u00a0spasmodic\u00a0\u00bb bladder. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Strong muscles called sphincters control the release of urine from the bladder. The urinary sphincter regulates the flow of urine from the bladder to the urethra, a narrow tube through which urine leaves the body.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With urge incontinence, the muscles in the bladder contract suddenly and involuntarily. The contraction is strong enough to overpower the sphincter, and as a result, urine is released from the body. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Urge incontinence is not an illness. It is <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/a-to-z-guides\/urge\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">typically<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> caused by an underlying medical issue. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is extremely common, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicinenet.com\/script\/main\/art.asp?articlekey=18381\" rel=\"noopener\">affecting approximately <\/a><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicinenet.com\/script\/main\/art.asp?articlekey=18381\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1 in 11<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> adults, and is more common in women and older individuals. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Fortunately, there are treatments available.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>What Causes Urge Incontinence?<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17074\" src=\"https:\/\/joinastudy.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/Urge-Incontinence-Causes-and-Risk-Factors.png\" alt=\"Urge Incontinence Causes and Risk Factors\" width=\"280\" height=\"210\" \/><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The muscle spasms that cause urge incontinence can occur for a number of reasons. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/symptom\/urge-incontinence\" rel=\"noopener\">Some of the most common reasons<\/a> include: <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Nervous system damage and disease. <\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Certain medical conditions can damage the nerves tin the bladder. These include chronic illnesses such as <a href=\"https:\/\/joinastudy.ca\/medical-conditions\/diabetes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">diabetes<\/a>, multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson&rsquo;s disease.\u00a0 Injury to the spinal cord or a stroke can also cause urge incontinence <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Bladder conditions.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bladder inflammation, infection, stones, cancer, as well as an obstruction of the opening of the bladder to the urethra can lead to urge incontinence. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Remember, it&rsquo;s not always possible to identify the exact cause of urge incontinence. <\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Common Risk Factors<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although urge incontinence can affect anyone, some people are at an increased risk of developing urge incontinence. The following risk factors can make <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/urinary-incontinence-oab\/urge#1\">urge incontinence more probable<\/a>: <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Age. <\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Older adults are more likely to develop urge incontinence, due to weakening of the bladder muscles. This results in decreased bladder storage capacity.\u00a0 Involuntary contractions of the bladder are more frequent in older people. <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Surgery.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Certain surgical procedures, such as a C-section, prostate surgery, or hysterectomy, can increase the risk of urge incontinence. <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Obesity. <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Excess weight puts more pressure on the bladder and surrounding muscles, weakening them and resulting in urine leaks. <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Prostate conditions.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Men who have prostatitis or an enlarged prostate are more likely to experience urge incontinence.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Nerve damage.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People who are suffering from nerve damage caused by an injury, stroke, or a medical condition such as diabetes or neurological disease are at increased risk. <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Certain cancers.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prostate and bladder cancer can lead to urge incontinence. <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Urinary tract infections. <\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bladder irritation caused by a urinary tract infection can affect the muscles in the wall of the bladder. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Prevention &amp; Treatment<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17075\" src=\"https:\/\/joinastudy.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/Urge-Incontinence-Prevention-and-Treatment.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"280\" height=\"210\" \/><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You might not be able to prevent urge incontinence, but you can try to reduce your risk by making certain lifestyle changes.\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/a-to-z-guides\/urge\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Treatments<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are available to help you. These include behavioural therapies, medication, electrical stimulation, and surgery. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your doctor will help you to determine the best way to treat your urge incontinence. Sometimes, a few different treatments are used.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Behavioural Treatments<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Behavioural treatments include <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/urinary-incontinence-oab\/urge#2\">techniques such as timed voiding<\/a>. Timed voiding involves recording the times that you urinate and\/or have an unintentional leak. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This can potentially help you to identify a pattern in your urge incontinence and avoid leaks in the future. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/urinary-incontinence-oab\/bladder-training-techniques]\">Bladder training is another behavioural treatment<\/a> that involves gradually increasing the intervals between urination. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You go to the bathroom at regular intervals, whether you feel like you need to or not.\u00a0 Over time, increase the intervals. For example, you might go to the bathroom once every hour for a week or several weeks.\u00a0<\/span>Next, you increase the time between bathroom breaks to 75 minutes, and eventually, 90 minutes.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/women\/guide\/kegels-should-i-do-them\">Kegel exercises<\/a> are another type of behavioural therapy that can help with urge incontinence. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kegel exercises target the pelvic floor muscles, which support the bladder and bowels. Having strong pelvic floor muscles can help you to avoid leaks. <\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Learn <a href=\"https:\/\/joinastudy.ca\/kegel-exercises-how-to-and-why\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">About Kegel Exercises And Why They&rsquo;re Important, Plus, How To Find Your Pelvic Floor Muscle.<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other behavioural and lifestyle changes may also help to improve symptoms of urge incontinence. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>These include: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Going to the bathroom regularly, especially before physical activity. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoiding alcohol and caffeine, especially before activities. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoiding drinking fluids immediately before bed. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid lifting heavy objects<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Losing excess weight.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Medical and Surgical Treatments<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes, changing your behaviour is not enough to alleviate symptoms of urge incontinence.
