Expert Urinary Incontinence Treatment in Men & Women

Urinary incontinence or loss of bladder control can be a debilitating and embarrassing problem. Fear of accidents prevents many people from enjoying activities and outings with family and friends, and can lead to social isolation. Although incontinence is not a normal part of aging, it is more common in older people.

Loss of bladder control is a symptom, not a disease. It can range from a slight loss of urine to severe, frequent episodes of wetting and is often caused by another, underlying health issue. Depending on the cause, incontinence can be a short-term problem or a long-term issue that must be managed.

For people with urinary incontinence, the most important step is talking to a healthcare provider about the problem. At University Hospitals, our experts will work with you to determine the cause of your problem and then, develop the best plan of treatment for you.
