Urinary Stress Incontinence in Males and Females

Article Category: Womens Interest

Author Name: Dr Scott Crawford, MD

Female urinary stress incontinence is more common than male urinary stress incontinence. Basically, this refers to the involuntary release of urine during any physical activity such as running, sneezing or coughing. It could be very humiliating for a sufferer which is why very few people report the problem to their doctors.

Contrary to popular belief, urinary incontinence or UI is not a sickness limited to older women. Both males and females are susceptible to this condition whether they're young or old. However, growing older does increase the chances of a person in contracting the problem. UI is usually a symptom of an underlying condition that can be easily treated.

There are basically different ways in which UI presents itself. Some people may experience release of very small amounts of urine while there are others who release large amounts. In some instances, a person would have this urgent need to urinate even after doing the same a few minutes ago. This article would be focusing on the stress incontinence type of UI .

Cause of Urinary Stress Incontinence

Stress UI stems basically from weak pelvic floor muscles. This means that if any pressure is applied on the abdomen, the pelvic involuntarily allows the flow of urine. Pressure can be in the form of a cough, a sneeze or even simply carrying something heavy.

Now, the reason for the weakening of the pelvic muscles is another matter. For the females, the usual cause includes childbirth, which may loosen the areas responsible. People who have been suffering from chronic coughs could also suffer from stress UI not to mention those who are obese or habitually smoke . Any damage done to the urethra area could also be a reason for the urinary incontinence. As mentioned, females are more susceptible to UI but even males can experience this problem.

Treatment of Stress UI

Treatment of male and female urinary stress incontinence depends on the underlying cause of the problem. For example, smokers would need to stop their habit to prevent other injuries on the pelvic area. For those who are suffering from chronic cough, the best stress UI treatment would be curing the cough itself.

However, those who are suffering from severe cases of stress UI would require much more serious treatment . Depending on how grave the problem is, doctors might recommend medication, pelvic floor muscle training or even surgery to the sufferer.

Some people are also asked to drink less fluid if they are having problems with stress UI. Avoiding stressful physical activities is also recommended to minimize the chances of involuntary urination . Weight loss and generally a good diet is also lobbied by doctors for anyone suffering from stress UI.

Of course, this is not the only type of urinary incontinence. There are also other kinds of this condition that also requires different treatment. Although not really a serious issue, UI can be very embarrassing, especially for those who are suffering severe cases. Hence, it is advised that sufferers - both men and women - consult their doctors as soon as possible if they are having chronic or even infrequent problems with urinary stress incontinence.
