One of the more common problems is urinary incontinence. In women, menopause, previous childbirth, pelvic floor dysfunction, aging, and other health factors can cause or contribute to bladder control problems.

Various etiologies can impact urinary incontinence, such as:
*urinary retention
*bladder infection (urinary tract infection UTI) in adults
*bladder control problems and nerve disease
*cystocele (prolapsed bladder)
*Bowel control problems (fecal incontinence)
*diabetes, sexual, and urologic problems
