Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is a common condition that affects women across all age groups, with its prevalence increasing as they grow older. This condition occurs when physical activities such as coughing, sneezing, laughing, or exercising place pressure on the bladder, leading to unintentional urine leakage. While aging significantly contributes to SUI, several other causes are equally impactful.
These include childbirth, which can weaken the pelvic floor muscles, obesity, which adds extra pressure on the bladder, and pelvic floor disorders such as prolapse or muscle dysfunction. Additionally, factors like hormonal changes during menopause, certain surgical procedures, and chronic conditions such as persistent coughing or constipation may also contribute to the development of stress urinary incontinence. Understanding these underlying causes is essential for effectively preventing and managing the condition.
