Main causes of urinary incontinence
Postpartum
Weight gain, pregnancy and childbirth force the
pelvic muscles to extraordinary efforts, and as result this can weaken and make them dysfunctional, causing leakage of urine.
Menopause
Hormonal changes that occur between 45 and 54 years old can affect muscle tone in the pelvic area, being a frequent cause of urinary leaks.
