What causes Urinary Incontinence?

During a woman’s life, childbirth, menopause, and age may have caused relaxation of the pelvic muscles, a natural process of the body. Women are often embarrassed to talk to their doctor and only 1/3 of them dare to confide because they do not know how to discuss their problem. This problem can cause loss of self-esteem and anxiety during sex. Many women often use disposable pads to deal with the problem, but there is another way.
