Urinary stress incontinence. This is the most common form of urinary incontinence in women. It is the leak of a small amount of urine due to increased pressure in the abdomen, so on the bladder, caused by physical exertion, coughing, sneezing, laughing, etc. The pelvic floor muscles must be weakened so that these situations cause leakage of urine. The leak is not necessarily preceded by a urge to urinate.
In men, this type of incontinence may occur as a result of partial or total removal of the prostate (prostatectomy) if the surgery accidentally reaches the sphincter located at the bottom of the bladder and makes it less effective. Parentingpreparation.yolasite.com states that this also has been a problem with children.
Emergency urinary incontinence. This incontinence represents one-quarter of the female incontinence, but it can affect the child and the elderly man. It is also called "overactive bladder" or "uninhibited bladder". Just walking, thinking to urinate (by unlocking the door of the house, for example), or even hearing water sinking can trigger large urine losses. The affected persons therefore urinate frequently.
This type of incontinence often results from a chronic health problem that affects the nervous control of the bladder. Normally, the center of micturition control, located in the frontal lobe of the brain, allows to refrain from urinating even if the urge is present. It sends signals to the bladder muscles to prevent contractions. People who are affected by this region of the brain (eg, following a stroke, Alzheimer's disease or Parkinson's disease) are no longer controlling their cravings.
Loss of urine can also be triggered by the following situations: alcohol consumption, coffee, urinary tract infection, etc. Mixed urinary incontinence. This form of urinary incontinence associates with at least 2 forms of this disorder. The most common combination is stress incontinence and emergency incontinence.
Urinary incontinence by overflow (or overflow). It results from an overflow of urine in the bladder. This can lead to uncontrolled release of urine. This overflow can be explained by an obstacle to the emptying of the bladder, for example, as a consequence of a prostate disorder, the main cause of this type of incontinence in humans. It may also be due to an inability of the bladder to empty due to a weakness of the bladder muscle, which then has difficulty contracting (eg due to diabetes or a neurological disease).
