With the weight and age does anyone else suffer from it? And does losing weight help with it? So embarrassing

What's that?

Yes, the surgery helps ...as a matter of fact I had issues with it prior to surgery and now I have no problems at all! I would wet myself sometimes and it wouldnt be because I sneezed or laughed...it was just uncontrollable. Now I am "dry" and happy!! I noticed a difference within a week of surgery, not sure if its because the weight was coming off....or because I dont drink sodas and tea.

Yes i do that to and all i drink is Water and very rarely cran grape lite juice. Its horrible when i have the flu and have coughing fits grrrr

now this would be a perk i wasn't even expecting. I have been wearing "protection" for so long, I don't think I would know how to get dressed without adding a pad to my underwear. Cough, sneeze, laugh you name it . Coughing is the worst.

I'm 53 and have to cross my legs when I sneeze or cough. I think incontinence comes with age too not only the weight thing. I also have a hard time "olding it" when I am laughing really hard too - LOL I am 6 months post op and down to 171 and have not seen any difference, it was the same when I was 150 too... I think it just may be me and gettin' old

What's that?

I think the same will be for me. It might have been weight a long time ago, now I think it is just age. They don't have a surgery for this age thing, lol.

LOL... I don't know if they have surgery for but I know there are vaginal exercises you can do to "hold" it !!! But when I get laughing I lose all control. Once I slipped and fell on my way to the bathroom and when I hit the floor I pee'd LOL.... I am very careful now

It does get better-some people have resolution of incontinence. And, yes, there is surgery that can correct it.

I had problems with it...three kids and almost 50 years old. It's much better now tho.
