Sometimes the incontinence only happens when sneezing, while laughing, or coughing. Men are more likely to have a problem with incontinence as they grow older. By age 65, five to fifteen percent experience incontinence. Because there are so many different causes for incontinence, you need to be examined if you suffer from this. There are good treatments for men with this problem.
Treatments vary, depending upon the cause.
Sometimes all it takes is a change in medication, or treating the underlying problem. Other times learning exercises to strengthen weak muscles will help. Some men who have enlarged prostate glands may need minor surgery. Try to slowly increase this time to about every three hours. When you know you are going to have limited access to a bathroom, avoid drinks with alcohol or caffeine.
