Adult Incontinence FAQ
Incontinence FAQ
Men
How common is bladder weakness?
Bladder weakness affects, on average, about 7% of the population. This figure becomes gradually higher in men from the age of sixty.
back to top
How does the bladder work?
When you eat or drink your body absorbs liquids. The kidneys filter waste products from the body fluids and make urine. A continuous trickle passes from the kidneys to the bladder and the bladder slowly expands. When the bladder is full a signal goes to the brain indicating the need to go to the toilet. Once the toilet is reached the brain then tells the large bladder muscle to squeeze and contract. At the same time, it tells the support muscles to relax and let the urine pass.

How often do most people empty their bladder?
Most people empty their bladders between four to eight times a day.

I’m relatively young and have a weak bladder. Isn’t this something that only affects older people?
Many men have problems urinating for a variety of reasons and regardless of age. Men who have undergone prostate surgery sometimes experience weak bladders for a limited period, maybe a year. Young boys with some kind of penile inflammation can also be affected. Heavy smokers cough more frequently than non-smokers and this can exacerbate the situation. Too much coffee, tea or alcohol doesn’t help either. So you can see, age is not the only factor.

Do exercises really help?
Yes they do. Please have a look at the training program in the How to Train Your Bladder section of this blog. Here you can see what exercises you can do. If in doubt we recommend you first consult with a doctor or urologist who can tell you which exercises are best for you.

What can be done about bladder weakness?
For different types of bladder control problems various other methods of treatment are available. Please talk to your doctor about the possibilities for treating your bladder control problem. The treatment of your bladder control problem, used in conjunction with Adult Incontinence products, will ensure that you can regain your confidence.

If I drink less will things improve?
No. Drinking less will make your urine more concentrated, which will in turn irritate your bladder, causing you to urinate more often. You should drink 6 to 8 glasses of fluid each day. However, it is not recommended that you drink excessive amounts either as this could lead to distension of the bladder.

I’m relatively young and have a weak bladder. Isn’t this something that only affects older people?
One out of four women over 35 years old have experienced bladder weakness. Pregnancy and childbirth contribute to this figure. Menopausal women often experience bladder weakness. Even young girls sometimes experience leaking after strenuous exercise. Heavy smokers cough more frequently than non-smokers, and this can exacerbate the situation. Too much coffee, tea or alcohol doesn’t help either. So you can see, age is not the only factor.

What can be done about bladder weakness?
The best way to try to prevent or reduce the number of leakage episodes is to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles by performing the exercises described in the training program section of the website. This tends to be more effective if you have the stress type of bladder control problem. For other types of bladder control problems, various other methods of treatment are available. Please talk to your doctor about the possibilities for treating your bladder control problem. The treatments described, used in conjunction with Binson's absorbent products, will ensure that you can regain your confidence.

I have read that bladder weakness can be treated with muscle-training exercises. How long before the exercises start to show results?
You will begin to feel the benefit of exercises after just a few weeks and after 8 to 12 months there is a very good chance you will be symptom-free. Even if you are not, your situation will have improved, and with the right products to help you, you will regain your confidence. The sooner you act, the better! Most people wait so long that it takes the body some time to get back to earlier routines.

Can I use sanitary pads for bladder weakness?
No; urine is light and is discharged in larger quantities; menstrual discharge is heavier and comes out more slowly. Two different conditions require two different absorption techniques and two different products.

There are Adult Incontinence products for all situations- from mild bladder weakness to heavy bladder and bowel incontinence. You can find more information in the products section of this website or contact one of our customer service representatives at (888)-246-7667.

Men
| Training program Due to the different causes of bladder weakness between men and women, the following exercises could help to improve the situation for some men with bladder weakness. Please talk to your doctor to find out what would be the best solution for you. | ||
| Choose the best position for you | ||
Lie on your back:
| ||
| Relax your back, buttocks, abdomen and legs as much as possible. Putyour hand on the lower half of your abdomen and make sure the musclesare not tensed. Breathe easily. | ||
| Find the right muscles Now you should concentrate on locating the right muscles. Slowly contract the sphincter. Squeeze the muscles around the urinary tract - imagine that you need to go to the toilet but can't get to one. Continue squeezing upwards so that you feel the pelvic floor being sucked inward and upwards. Repeat this contraction using moderate effort for about 2 seconds and then rest a further 2 seconds. Do this a number of times. |  | |
| By consciously interrupting the flow of urine next time you visit thetoilet, you will be able to ascertain whether or not you have found theright muscles. But remember this is not part of the training program -just a way of checking. | ||
| Another way to check is by placing a finger between your scrotum and the anus and feeling the muscles contract. | ||
| The 'strength' contraction When you are sure that you have located the right muscles, you can squeeze harder and longer. Squeeze as hard as you can for 5 seconds and then relax for 5 seconds. Repeat this 5 - 10 times. |  | |
| The 'endurance' contraction Do the same but hold for anywhere between 30 seconds and one minute. After a while, you will feel your strength ebbing but don't worry! Still try to contract the muscles for up to one minute. Do this exercise just once a day. |  | |
| The 'resistance' contraction When you have mastered the 'strength' contraction, you are ready to try this combined with abdominal pressure. For example:
|  | |
| As this training program only takes a few minutes of your time, it would be a good idea to repeat it as often as possible, preferably 6 -8 times daily. No injuries will result; it's extremely beneficial and is also an excellent precautionary measure! |
Women
| Excercising the muscles in the pelvic floor is an effective way to minimize or prevent bladder leakage. They can be activated voluntarily so it is easy to make them strong. Excercising costs nothing and has no side effects, so try this before starting other treatment methods. After 2-3 months of excercising you should notice an improvement. If you do not, talk to your doctor who will either help you to improve your excercises or maybe suggest an alternative method of treatment. However, whatever the doctor's suggests, he or she will stress the importance of remaining physically active. |  | |
| The pelvic floor muscles The pelvic floor muscles are a group of muscles inside the pelvis that forms a floor in the body. They surround the urethra, vagina and rectum and should, along with the sphincter muscles, maintain control over these openings. The muscles should also support the urethra, bladder and womb and withstand all increases in abdominal pressure that occur during physical exercise. |  | |
| If the pelvic floor muscles are weak the urethra can fall during exertion, resulting in bladder leakage. | ||
| Finding the right muscles is important The pelvic floor muscles are not easy to locate oneself. Studies have shown that some 30% of women who try to train their pelvic floor muscles do so incorrectly. It is important that you are aware of the most common mistakes. They are:
|  | |
 | ||
| The following test should prove helpful Try interrupting the flow when you urinate. Try to feel which muscles you are using to do this. These are the muscles you need to work on. Note that this is only a test to identify the correct musculature and should not be repeated on a regular basis. | ||
| Correct contraction of the muscles Correct contraction of the pelvic floor muscles feels like a small lift under the pelvis up into the body. There should be no accompanying movement of other parts of the body, e.g. the buttocks, stomach or the inner thighs. If you have a problem identifying the right muscles or if you are not sure that you are exercising correctly contact your doctor and/or urologist. |  | |
| When you have learned to use the muscles correctly, train as hard as you can without using other muscle groups. Gradually increase the number of repetitions to 10 times. Try to hold each muscle contraction for 6-8 seconds. | ||
| Intensive pelvic floor exercise When you are able to hold the muscle contraction for 8 seconds you can try to draw the muscles further in with rapid contractions 3-4 times at the end of the 'hold period' - contract, hold, hold, then quickly lift in, in, in. Train the pelvic floor muscles 3 times a day with 10 repetitions each time, holding each repetition for 6-8 seconds. |  | |
| In order to get the best possible results from the pelvic floor exercises, you should train at near-maximum intensity as described above for around 6 months. When the desired effect has been achieved, you will be able to reduce the frequency without losing muscle strength. | ||
| Positions for correct exercising of the pelvic floor muscles In order to isolate the pelvic floor muscles, you should choose positions that make it difficult to use other muscles and which enable you to train as hard as possible. Choose from these positions and see which ones are best for you. |  | |
| 1. Stand with your legs well apart. Put your hands on your buttock muscles and make sure you are not using these when you tense the pelvic floor muscles up and in. | ||
| 2. Lie on your stomach with one knee bent. Contract the pelvic floor muscles. | ||
| 3. Kneel with your feet together and your knees apart. Support your head on your hands. Press up and in with the pelvic floor muscles. | ||
| 4. Lie on your back with your knees bent and your feet well apart. Place one hand on your buttocks and the other on your stomach, and make sure you are not exerting these muscles. Pull up together with the pelvic floor muscles. | ||
| 5. Sit cross-legged with a straight back. Lift the pelvic floor muscles up and in, away from the floor. | ||
| 6. Stand with your knees and hips bent, supporting your arms on your thighs. Your back should be straight. Press the pelvic floor muscles up and in. | ||
| Don't give up! After 2-3 months of regular exercise you will already be able to notice a difference. And remember that 60% of women who trained intensively were successful in minimizing or eliminating bladder leakage completely after one year! | ||
| It is never too late to start pelvic floor exercises. Women who have started exercising in their 70's have felt improvements. When you incorporate the exercises into your daily routines they will become as natural as brushing your teeth. | ||
| Good luck! And don't give up! |
