Urge Incontinence
Urge incontinence, also called urgency incontinence, is the involuntary loss of urine preceded by a sudden and intense urge to urinate that is difficult to hold back.
Common symptoms: an urgent and frequent need to go to the bathroom, urine leaks before making it there, and sometimes waking up several times at night to urinate.
Common causes: it is usually associated with an overactive bladder, urinary infections, neurological changes, or bladder irritation.
Which specialist treats it? The urologist is the one who studies urinary tract problems, and the nephrologist evaluates kidney function when necessary; the general practitioner can guide the first visit. If the leaks affect your daily life, consider having it evaluated to understand the cause.
