dc.description.abstract | Urinary incontinence affects 3.84 million Australians – men, women, older people and
younger people alike. People are affected by urinary incontinence in different ways.
Some people leak a little when they cough or sneeze. Others have to rush
to the toilet and don’t make it, while others cannot store any urine in their bladder
and leak almost all the time.
Managing urinary incontinence in everyday life can be very difficult, but if you
or someone you know leaks urine or has a weak bladder, you’re not alone. You’ll
find lots of useful information and strategies in this booklet that will help manage the
condition in a way that fits into your lifestyle.
The information in this booklet has been provided by nurses who have been working
with urinary incontinence and researching this area for many years. They understand
your problem and help people like you on a daily basis. The information has also been
gathered from more than 300 adult men and women living with urinary incontinence
who have shared their ideas with us on how they manage their condition. Interestingly,
many of them used the same strategies. | |
