It stands for Light Bladder Leakage, and it affects millions of women. In fact, you can expect a third of your friends to know what you're going through - which is frequent involuntary leakage of urine. Or, in simple terms, you can't control your bladder. WHAT CAUSES LBL? Just as no two women are alike, there's no single reason that LBL happens. Some of the most common things that lead to uninvited leaks include: Physical changes from childbirth, pregnancy, hysterectomy or menopause Being overweight Complications from surgery, stroke, or chronic diseases like diabetes, multiple sclerosis (MS) or Parkinson's disease Bladder or urinary tract infections Bladder irritants (certain foods and beverages) WHAT ARE THE TYPES OF INCONTINENCE? While there are several kinds of urinary incontinence, the three most common are: Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI): The involuntary loss of urine that occurs when pressure is suddenly placed on your bladder. This could happen when you cough, laugh, sneeze, exercise or lift a heavy item. Urge Urinary Incontinence (UUI): A sudden, intense urge to urinate, followed by a loss of urine. With this condition, the bladder muscles squeeze at the wrong time and cause leaks. Mixed Urinary Incontinence (MUI): When you experience both Stress and Urge Urinary Incontinence, it's called Mixed Urinary Incontinence.
