Analysis of the causes of female enuresis

There are three common types of enuresis in women: stress urinary incontinence, urge urinary incontinence and mixed stress urge urinary incontinence. Stress urinary incontinence, also known as tension incontinence, is the most common type of urinary incontinence among women. It refers to the uncontrolled and involuntary flow of urine when abdominal pressure suddenly increases due to coughing, sneezing, laughing, standing up, etc. Urge urinary incontinence refers to the sudden urge to urinate, and the feeling is very strong, as if you can't hold it in any longer. Often when this happens, you don't have time to go to the toilet before you wet your pants. The most common cause is a urinary tract infection. Stress and urge incontinence often occur together in women, which is often called mixed incontinence.

Precautions for female enuresis

1. Urinate according to a schedule every day, with an interval of 3 to 4 hours between each urination, regardless of whether you need to urinate at this time.

2. If you are taking medication, contact your doctor as soon as possible and ask which of the prescription and over-the-counter medications you are taking may cause urinary incontinence.

3. Perform "double urination" as much as possible, allowing yourself to relax for a while, and then continue urinating.

4. If the urge to urinate is strong and cannot be controlled well, it is best to clear your way to the bathroom and wear clothes that are easy to take off (such as clothes with elastic waistbands), or place a potty where you sleep and sit so that you can urinate in time.

5. Reduce or avoid caffeinated beverages (such as coffee, tea, and some carbonated drinks).

6. Avoid excessive drinking.

7. When doing exercises such as jogging or dancing, place a small cotton ball in the urethra to apply some pressure to the urethra to temporarily slow down or stop urine leakage.

8. Avoid drinking too much or too little fluid. Excess fluid increases the frequency of urination and can increase the likelihood of incontinence. Too little fluid can lead to kidney dehydration. Drinking about 2.268 liters of water every day can better maintain the health of your kidneys and bladder.

9. If you also have constipation, you need to increase fiber in your daily diet. This method is simple and easy, such as adding a small amount of wheat bran (4.7g) to your usual food or eating more fruits, vegetables, grains with skins, beans, etc.

10. If you smoke, it is very necessary to quit smoking. Quitting smoking can reduce coughing, which can reduce incontinence problems.
