Abnormal: Urinary incontinence is not normal at any age. However, following pregnancy is it not uncommon and often resolves within 1-3 months. If it persists or is severe you should contact your healthcare provider.

Need more info: There are many types and causes of incontinence. It depends on what your definition of young or the type of incontinence. Incontinence can be common but that does not mean it is " normal". Follow up with primary, gyn, urogynecologist or urologist for further evaluation. There many treatment options that can be discussed further. www.voicesforpfd.org
