A member asked:
Can you offer tricks/tips for not losing bladder control, even if for confidence?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Kegel Exercises: Kegel exercises train your urinary sphincter muscle by periodic squeezing. Make yourself stop peeing -- that is the "Kegel"muscle. Most women are aware of performing Kegels as a means to reduce stress incontinence after childbirth or pelvic surgery. However, squeezing this same muscle rapidly at a time of urgency can abort that urge and allow you more time to get to the bathroom.
