There are five major types of bladder incontinence including stress incontinence, urge incontinence, overflow incontinence, mixed incontinence, and functional incontinence. - Stress Incontinence: Stress incontinence is identified by urine leaks while you exert pressure on your bladder by engaging in physical activity or movements such as sneezing. - Urge Incontinence: Urge incontinence is classified as a much more sudden urge to urinate that is typically followed by accidentally urinating. - Overflow Incontinence: Overflow incontinence is caused by your bladder not being able to fully empty which causes frequent urine dribbling. - Mixed Incontinence: Mixed incontinence occurs when you experience one or more types of urinary incontinence. - Functional Incontinence: Functional incontinence happens when you have a mental or physical impairment that makes it challenging to make it to the bathroom before having an accident.
