I know that when people use muscle relaxants, sometimes incontinence would occur. I wonder if steroids would cause similar accidents in adult males.
dont even think about useing steroids..thats just dumb n your cheating! do it your self!..Steroids are really bad for ur health..they can cus ance,kidney faluire,nuts will shrink up,penis wont grow all the way..stun of growth, cancer,,,n they can lead to death.
I was wondering if some one coudl explain to me how vaginal child birth disrupts the bladder and causes stress incontinence in women ? Also, does it happen if a woman has a c-section ? And, if natural child birth (vagina) causes al these problems for women, why recommend it instead of a c-section ?
In vaginal birth the uterus can prolapse and put pressure on the bladder. Vaginal births are preferred to c-sections because there are less risk associated with vaginal births.
hope this is a more suitable question for seniors and won’t be deleted.
I don’t need incontinence yet. or corn pads, but I can put out some corny answers. I do have acid reflux because I eat stuff I shouldn’t…just use Omezperal. Guess that’s how it’s spelled. And I don’t always take it, then I whine…or I guess I groan…to myself.
I want to be able to prevent leakage of urine when laughing, sneezing or coughing but I dont want to do any surgery. The Kegals dont work for me or maybe I am not doing it right. I am 32 and I have 1 child.
nope, no medications will tighten up that sphincter, only the kegels will do that, and they must be done religiously to have any effect. I too had the same problem after two children, and while I still do kegels religiously, I finally opted for the surgery, it really wasn’t that big a deal.
I’ve got an old dog that’s started drinking a lot more water in the last few weeks, and also going to the bathroom in the house. At first we thought it was separation anxiety, but today we notices that urine is leaking out of her when she is laying down. Any suggestions?
It could be a UTI, but spay incontinence is not uncommon in older dogs – I had an old dog who was incontinent for the last two years of her life. She spend most of her time outside, so I just kept her off the carpet and cleaned up after her when she was inside.
Sometimes the vet can give the dog hormones which will help, and they do make "panties" for dogs that can be used for incontinence.
I would take her to the vet and have her checked in case it is an infection or diabetes (drinking a lot can be a symptom) and see what he says.
Has needing to wear incontinence protection effected, positively or negatively, the relationship you share with your kids, or your spouse? Are they embarrassed by you, do they know, does your relationship as a father/mother differ from that of someone who is not incontinent? Thank You
my mother had this problem but it never effected her relationship with her children (there are7 of us) or with our step father who loved her to the day we lost her.
The only difference was we bought her bigger purses so she could carry what she needed when she was out and on loner rips we stopped more often.
But there is know reason it should effect their lives or how people feel or treat them
We have a new vet who insists that blood work is required every six months for prescription of this drug. I can’t find any evidence that is true looking around online, and no one else I know whose dog has been on this medication required regular bloodwork. This is a new vet, and I’m suspicious that some of their policies are geared more toward profitability than health.
Try calling around to several good vets. Not low end vets, but vets who see people who don’t flinch at costs. I bet even the people at the front desk could tell you the answer as they do the scheduling and billing.
If your pet is on any long term medication, it’s generally good to do periodic screening – especially if the drug has any side effects.
Good luck to you and I hope you find the answer you need! : )
I am interested in finding an insurer who will cover, at least in part, costs associated with wearing reusable (washable) adult (cloth) diapers? Does anyone know if such an insurer exists in the United States?
No such horse.
The only people who would ever buy that coverage, are the people who want to use it.
If you want to use cloth diapers, and don’t want to pay for adult sized ones (which go for around $50 each), you should look into sewing them. It would take around $10 of materials, and two hours of time, for each diaper.
You would need to do daily exercises for a couple of weeks. These exercises would be monitored by a doctor to make sure that you were doing them correctly.
Would you do this to end your incontinence?
Problem with the Kegels is that most women don’t do them correctly or at all. This device tracks your daily activity to ensure that you will do them.
yes if i was incontenant sure. Beats piddling yourself.
