A member asked:
Wife has urinary incontinence, and won't have minor surgery to fix it..what could happen if untreated?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Will remain wet: It's her body. Shame not to have it corrected. Will she at least consult with a url-gynecologist or urologist. Suspension procedures are fairly minor ; done on an outpatient basis.
