Can menopause cause me to pee myself? Understanding Urinary Incontinence After 40
If you’ve ever asked, “Why can I barely hold my pee all of a sudden?” or found yourself dealing with leaks you never used to, you’re not alone. Many women notice these changes during their 40s and beyond, especially around perimenopause and menopause. It’s not “normal,” but it is common, and there are ways to manage it!
Welcome back to Take Care of Your Kitty! Today’s episode is inspired by Mary J. Blige’s classic “What’s the 411?” because we’re dishing out some serious intel on urinary incontinence.
We’ll talk about why these changes happen, cover the types of urinary incontinence that women experience, and give you actionable steps, from lifestyle shifts to seeing a pelvic floor physical therapist, to help you regain control and confidence.
