Urinary Incontinence Treatments in Calgary
Urinary incontinence is the involuntary leakage of urine and is common among women, particularly after pregnancy and childbirth or as the body changes with age and menopause. It can range from occasional leaks during exercise, coughing or sneezing to a sudden urge that is difficult to control. At our Calgary clinics, we take the time to understand your symptoms and how they affect your daily life before discussing whether treatment may be appropriate for you.

Why Does Urinary Incontinence Happen?
The pelvic floor is a group of muscles and supporting tissues that helps hold the pelvic organs in place and contributes to bladder control. Together with the bladder and urethra, these structures help keep urine contained until you are ready to urinate. When this support or coordination changes, leakage can become more likely.
Pregnancy and Childbirth
Pregnancy places increasing pressure on the pelvic floor, while vaginal childbirth can stretch the muscles and surrounding tissues. For some women, these changes can affect the support needed for bladder control even after recovery from childbirth.
Hormonal Changes
Estrogen helps support the tissues around the vagina and urinary tract. As estrogen levels decline around menopause, changes in tissue thickness, elasticity and support can contribute to urinary symptoms.
Aging and Pelvic Floor Changes
Muscles and connective tissues naturally change with age, including those that support the bladder and urethra. A gradual loss of pelvic floor strength or support can make it more difficult to maintain bladder control, particularly when pressure increases.

Urinary leakage can affect exercise, social activities and everyday confidence, but it is not something you need to simply accept as part of aging or motherhood. During a consultation at one of our Calgary clinics, your specialist can discuss your symptoms, identify the pattern of incontinence you are experiencing and determine whether one of the available treatment options may be appropriate for you.
