A member asked:
If you have urinary incontinence when sneezing or coughing is that from being overweight or too much caffeine? i am only 24 and have for long time.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It could be: You should at your young age of 24 see a gynecologist or urologist to check that the valves that normally seal off leakage are normal. Meanwhile, try to lose weight, cut down on caffeine (which is a diuretic), and try doing Kegel exercises to increase the strength of those muscles.
