A member asked:

Why do i frequently have a problem holding my urine. it happens when i laugh, cough or sneeze.?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Stress incontinence: Stress incontinence is a very common problem. It occurs more frequently after a vaginal birth and as you age. It can be treated with kegel exercises, physical therapy and sometimes mild surgery. If it effects your life then see your obgyn for an evaluation.
