Hello,my name is dr,Dorina Gurabardhi.I understand your concern.
Incontinence may be a temporary problem caused by
-a vaginal or urinary tract infection (UTI),
-constipation,
-certain medications
The most common causes of chronic incontinence include:
-Overactive bladder muscles.
-Weakened pelvic floor muscles.
-Nerve damage that affects bladder control ETC
Some analysis that I suggest you to do are:
Urinalysis
Blood tests
Pelvic ultrasound
The treatment of urinary incontinence varies depending on the cause of the bladder control problem.
