Common, but treatable.
A laugh. A sneeze. A jump with your kids. And then that moment.
If you've started wearing a liner just in case, mapping out every bathroom, or skipping the workout you love, you are not alone. And it is not your fault.
Bladder leaks are a medical issue, not a personal failing. Women experience them about twice as often as men, and pregnancy, childbirth and menopause all play a role. As estrogen drops, the tissues of the bladder, urethra and va**na change too, which can bring urgency and repeat UTIs.
The good news: there are real options. Guided pelvic floor training helps many women. Bladder training, medication, devices and procedures can help too. The right plan depends on the type of leak and what is driving it.
At Essentia, we start with an exam and a real conversation. From there, a plan may include pelvic floor support, hormone options when appropriate, or in-office treatments on our EmpowerRF platform. Results vary, and not every option is right for every woman.
