A member asked:
If you?have ?an overactive bladder is it better to hold your pee?or let it flow to prevent infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No difference: If your bladder is over active, it is unlikely that you would be able to hold it long enough to increase your risk of an infection. Go when ever convenient.
