    Urinary incontinence is a common problem affecting millions of women. Most women are too embarrassed to discuss the topic with their physician, but often, it is a treatable if not curable symptom. Types of incontinence include stress incontinence, urge incontinence, overflow incontinence and mixed incontinence. Treatment depends on the type of incontinence and range from lifestyle changes such as weight loss, behavioral training to medications and more invasive treatments like inserts or pessaries and surgery.
