Kegels and Incontinence
Urinary stress incontinence is one of those 'personal' problems
that women rarely talk about believing that it only happens to a
few women or is just an unavoidable part of getting older. However
nearly one in five women over 18 lose urine when they laugh, cough,
sneeze or over-exert themselves.1
And once you've had a baby the likelihood goes up to one in three!2.
The great news is that an estimated 60-70% of those affected could
be cured or much improved, irrespective of the severity of the
underlying condition 3.
And the cure - you guessed it - 'Do the Kegel'!
