In adults bed wetting may result from disease or genitourinary tract abnormality. The use of some drugs may cause incontinence.
Some older women, particularly women who have borne children, may wet their beds occasionally, or lose urine when bending or lifting, coughing and sneezing. This is usually the result of stretching and relaxation of the muscles of the floor of the pelvis. The condition responds well to exercise and surgery. Some women may require a pessary, a soft rubber internal support. In men incontinence – usually temporary – may follow surgery fro prostate trouble.
Various surgical procedures, mechanical devices, prostheses, and exercise regimen are available to aid adults with incontinence problems.
