What is Stress Urinary Incontinence?

If you struggle with bladder leaks when you sneeze, exercise, laugh, cough or walk, then you may suffer from Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI).


SUI is when urine leaks out during moments of physical activity that increases abdominal pressure, such as coughing, sneezing, laughing, or exercise.



This condition is caused by a weakness of the pelvic floor muscles, which usually tends to happen as we get older, with pregnancy and with certain pelvic floor conditions.

Did you know that stress urinary incontinence is a common condition that affects 1 in 3 women at some point in their lives. In fact, in the US, more feminine pads are used for incontinence than for menstruation.


Dealing with stress urinary incontinence can be frustrating, struggling with embarrassing bladder leaks. But luckily there is a treatment option available to help you regain bladder control.
