I had a miscarriage at almost 12 weeks about 4 years ago. Ever since I’ve had trouble with incontinence, getting worse as time goes on. I asked my gyno and she said it should stop but I’m not sure. Can the incontinence be a result of the miscarriage? Is it something I should be worried about? I’m only 30 and don’t want to have to wear something every day in fear of having a leakage issue.

Not normally. You may be on medications that cause it. And yes, it should stop. also, pay attention to damaged or sore perineum, rectum or rectal muscles, but they will heal. If you mean bladder control, see UTI.
