Urinary incontinence is defined as the involuntary leakage of urine. This might be a result of weak pelvic floor muscles, which play an important role in supporting pelvic organs and controlling continence. There are three types of urinary incontinence: 1. Stress incontinence is when there is exerted pressure on the bladder causing leakage. This can be caused by coughing, laughing, sneezing, or exercising. 2. Urge is the sudden, intense urge to urinate frequently. 3. Mixed incontinence is a combination of both. There are non-invasive treatments available for urinary incontinence, such as High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic® technology, that lift the pelvic floor.
