Stress Incontinence - Menopause Symptoms - The Menopause Minutes
#stressincontinence #tenapads #menopauseincontinence
Even if you have exercised throughout your life you can still be susceptible to stress incontinence at menopause as our oestrogen levels drop and our body functions can become weaker.
According to @TENA as many as a third of women over fifty experience incontinence as the pelvic floor muscles weaken.
There are some steps that you can take to prevent the symptom becoming an overriding issue:
1 - reduce to 1.5 - 2L of water MAXIMUM
2 - avoid jumping and running
3 - pelvic floor exercises
4 - diet high in fibre to avoid consipation
5 - quit smoking as this habit is associated with urologic diseases!!
6 - avoid or reduce caffeine and alcohol
7 - lose weight
