Hi, wondered if anyone can help or advise with a problem I have please?
I sleep well and don't have to get up in the night to pass urine, but when I get up in the morning I have problems getting to the bathroom without wetting myself? The urge is very bad, unfortunately my bathroom is downstairs making it harder to get there in time?
I don't have the problem in the day just on waking?
Have some test to find out what sort of incontinence you have
Do some male pelvic floor exercises which should strengthen things in there and will then be able to hold... Hopefully.
Hi...i was diagnosed with urge incontinence (i had/have it 24/7) , but needed to go to the loo in the middle of the night. As soon as i stood up i more or less went. My toilet is also downstairs which makes things even more "interesting"!!
Like Gillian said go to your doctor asap and get a proper diagnosis. After that you can take things as they come. The longer you leave it the more stressful it becomes (well it did for me anyway!)
Good luck... x
Thank you everyone, I think a visit to the doctor is on the cards!
ps Darren, I'm a woman lol
Oh dear. Can I leave now please
can you do women pelvic floor exercises then???
