How Is Incontinence Treated?
Shhh! I don’t want to talk about it, but there is this little problem I seem to have…Like so many other issues in today’s life incontinence is out of the closet. No, oh heavens, no. We aren’t discussing a leaking bladder at the dinner table, but here among friends with similar problems nothing is held back.
I Have Diabetes... Should I Worry About Incontinence?
Diabetes is a disease that happens when your blood glucose or blood sugar levels become too high. You eat food because you are hungry and your body needs energy. Glucose, which comes from the food we eat then goes into our cells and is converted into energy.
Urinary Incontinence In The Winter
We all have that friend who constantly has to pee! It seems like every time you’re out, they need to find a bathroom and that can be somewhat of an annoyance. Unfortunately, there is no perfect outing with someone who constantly has to use the bathroom, especially in the winter. Don’t fret though, your friend could be experiencing a medical condition called urinary incontinence. In the winter months incontinence can be even more challenging!
Yes, Incontinence Affects Men Too!
Did you know that as men age the normal act of urinating can get harder, especially if you have prostate issues. Prostate surgery leaves men extremely vulnerable to leakage when they sneeze, cough or even stand up after sitting.
Traveling With Incontinence
It's officially the busiest travel time of the year! The hustle and bustle of the holiday season is an exciting time for most people. However, having easy access to a bathroom while in transit is not something you can count on.
Can Having A Baby Lead To Stress Incontinence?
We all know having a baby changes us and it's pretty safe to say that our bodies will never be the same again! As your baby grew inside of you, the enlarged uterus put a good amount of pressure on your bladder. The bladder just happens to be located right below your uterus! This is why when you were pregnant you might have experienced some minor leaking. About a third of first time pregnancies result in temporary stress incontinence. Most women return to having full continence after delivery since this is when the tissues from the birth canal heal. But did you know some women will experience incontinence for a year or more after giving birth?

Leigh syndrome is a severe neurological disorder that is usually identified within the first year or so of life. Leigh syndrome can be caused by mutations in one of more than 75 different genes. Sadly, most who are diagnosed with Leigh syndrome will not live more than two to three years. Those with only partial deficiencies have a better prognosis, and may live to be 6 or 7 years of age. Death will usually result from respiratory failure.
