Many females contend with pelvic floor difficulties, including urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse – when pelvic organs drop due to debilitated muscles and skin. One sign of pelvic organ prolapse is urinary incontinence.

Close to 40 percent of females over age 60 account for urinary incontinence. There are two categories: stress incontinence and urge incontinence. Stress incontinence ensues when you cough, sneeze or exert yourself and experience a leak. Urge incontinence is not connected to activity, but is an irrepressible and recurrent urge to urinate.

• The female may experience looseness in their vaginal wall
• Urinary incontinence
• In severe cases, a female may have trouble with bowel movements

When the signs of uterine descent disturb an individual’s daily life, it is time to pursue help. Left untreated, these signs can cause difficulties.
