The Truth About Menopause Urinary Incontinence - You're Not Alone

Описание: Watch Lindsay's complete story:    • Unravelling Urinary Inconvenience: The Lin...  

In this episode we meet Lindsay. Lindsay’s experience with perimenopause began very early, in her late 30s. The key issue she was having was urge incontinence, where the urge to urinate comes on quickly and is hard to control.

Lindsay's other main symptom was migraine headaches that were very painful and disruptive. When she finally found herself with such extreme urge incontinence that she couldn’t contain her urine as she got out of her car, she knew something had to be done.

Lindsay’s frustration and distress about her menopausal transition symptoms is only part of her story. She has experienced, as many of us have, the second-class status of women’s health. She had to become a strong and vocal advocate for her own health because none of her healthcare providers were taking her seriously. When she became the ‘squeaky wheel’, insisting on digging into her concerns, the doctors finally discovered significant ovarian cysts and realized the root cause of her symptoms was perimenopausal hormone changes.

Lindsay’s story is unique, yet the experience of disturbing, disruptive symptoms and a lack of concern from the medical establishment will be familiar to many women.

Urinary System Changes
Changing hormone levels can have a physiological impact on the urinary system causing different types of bladder problems. Although the accompanying symptoms such as overactive bladder, stress incontinence, urge incontinence, urine leakage, and bladder leakage may be unpleasant, fortunately they are quite often easily addressed with simple self-care routines.
