Stress incontinence is the loss of small amounts of urine associated with coughing, laughing, sneezing, exercising.

 One in every three women in any age group, although commonly post-pregnancy and menopausal women are suffering from undiagnosedstress incontinence. Despite its prevalence, approximately 60% of women suffering from urinary incontinence do not seek professional help for their condition due to the belief that it is an embarrassment and it is a natural consequence of ageing and childbirth. Loss of adequate control on urinary bladder is called as STRESS INCONTINENCE or OVERACTIVE BLADDER.

3) What are the consequences if not dealt with it at early stage? 

4) How can you prevent it ? 

5) What are the exercises to control the situation?
