Embarrassing problems

I don't know about anyone else, but lately I keep wetting myself laughing. Not that anyone else needs to post about this but I thought I would, since that's the third time tonight and I don't have an automatic washing machine.

I remember seeing a TV documentary of the Rolling Stones with girls peeing their pants, and now whenever I see Bishops Weed (commonly found in Oak woods) I'm reminded of this.

Anyways I thought I would just mention it since it's a bit of a problem that no-one tends to talk about. Pads are all very well but I can't bear the thought of all the landfill and it seems to happen when I'm not actually wearing one. Pelvic floor exercises are fine and good but not always effective and I don't like to take an antimuscarinic regularly due to the side effects of dry mouth and blurred vision.

Feeling a bit young for an embarrassing problem but...hey ho, it's Christmas

Here is an interesting short summary: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20638774. Basically, posture work was more effective than kegals in dealing with stress incontinence.

Good books:

He works with back pain patients, but his exercise regimens basically address postural issues. A posterior tilt to the pelvis will contribute to stress incontinence and other problems. Anyway, to make a long story really short, muscle imbalances need to be fixed in order to be able to maintain good posture.

This then leads to:

Her exercises help in learning how to maintain good posture throughout the day.

Both books are available on Amazon.co.uk.

A significant number of young women in their twenties deal with some degree of stress incontinence, so you are really never too young.
