Impact of Menopause on Urinary Incontinence and Overactive Bladder: Risk Factors and Management Approaches

Abstract

Continually challenging is urge incontinence in postmenopausal women. The underlying cause could be neurological or musculoskeletal. The patient may experience embarrassment when discussing the matter. The majority of treatments for this condition are non-surgical and may include learning to control one's bladder, revaluating one's medication, engaging in psychosocial activities like counselling, along with, in certain cases, the use of continence aides. Regarding the issue of postmenopausal women going through urge incontinence, additional guidance is available. NICE has a precise and up-to-date guideline for incontinence management, as well as relevant information.
