Urinary incontinence is a condition in which an individual has the inability to control urine which means urine leaks out involuntarily. Loss of bladder control results in this common and embarrassing situation. The condition affects persons of both genders. On average 1 in 3 women will suffer with Urinary Incontinence in the UK.
It causes a frequent and sudden urge to urinate and in some people urine often leaks while coughing and sneezing. In some people the urge is so sudden and strong that the person often does not get time to reach a toilet. For some people there can be constant dribbling of urine due to the bladder not completely emptying.
The causes are varied and in women there can be many different causes, some of these are:
- Physical stress on the bladder due to pregnancy or obesity.
- Emotional and nervous stress.
- Prolapsed uterus.
- Menopause.
- Age is a risk factor as well.
- Weak Detrusor muscle and nerves.
- Persistent Constipation.
- Urinary or Vaginal Infections.
However there’s no need to put up with this issue, instead there are many things a person can do improve their situation.
Homeopathic Medicines provide a long term solution for Urinary Incontinence. They aim to treat the cause of the issue as well as strengthening the Detrusor muscle around the bladder. The medicines are chosen according to a persons specific symptoms and it’s not like conventional medicine where the same medicine is given to everyone with the issue.
Other things that can help are Magnesium and Vitamin D3 Supplements. Taking Magnesium helps reduce bladder spasms allowing the bladder to empty fully on urination. Low Vitamin D3 levels are also shown to correlate with weak pelvic floor muscles. Also reduce eating or using products with Phenylalanine in them as this is can be an irritant for the bladder for some people.
