What Causes Urine Leakage While Coughing?
My first born child is nearly 18 years old. I gave birth naturally with no problems. I’ve had 2 more children since then. The problem is, whenever I get a cough or cold I lose urine and it runs down my leg. It’s very embarrassing and can smell. Is there any surgery I can get to stop this happening? I’m 50 years old this year.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
You can definitely get help. Your symptoms are suggestive of pelvic organ prolapse. A consultation with a urogynecologist (gynecological examination, voiding tests, questionnaires) will get you a long way. Best of luck.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
