Incontinence in women is a common problem, but fewer than 40% of individuals seek medical advice.
Rather than seek appropriate bladder treatment and advice to help manage the problem, many women adapt by altering their lifestyle.
Regaining Bladder Control
Poise® can provide you with information and advice on the process toward regaining bladder control from incontinence, offering bladder management options as well as supporting resources in Australia. Poise® offers support during this process by offering information on pelvic floor exercises, downloadable bladder diary pages, and other valuable bladder training and management advice to help you learn how to regain control.
There is however one person you should talk openly with about managing bladder control problems – your doctor or health care professional. They can help determine the cause and type, as well as help you take the necessary steps to regain control and improve your condition.
Because the last thing you want to do is let bladder weakness get in the way of doing the things you love.
