They tend to lose just a frew drips or the occasional small gush. Although rare sometimes a woman can lose the entire content of the baldder.</p> <p><strong>What Causes Bladder Weakness </strong></p> <p>Weakend Pelvic Floor Muscles: The bladder and the outlet are held in place by a hammock like muscle arrangement called the pelvic floor. It is the pelvic floor muscles that keep the urine in the bladder and prevent it escaping.</p> <p>When these muscles lose their strength and flexibility even simple every day activities such as coughing and laughing can cause urine to escape. Pelvic floor muscles can be stretch and weakend during childbirth and also be overweight can put a strain on the pelvic floor muscles.</p> <p>Menopause: After menopause a woman’s body reduces the amount of hormones it produces which can also lead to bladder problems and bladder weakness.</p> <p>Other Reasons: Damages to nerves, certain drugs, constipation, and urine infections can all lead to bladder control problems. </p> <p><strong>Types of Bladder Problems</strong></p> <p>There are 4 major types of bladder problems. Each has a different cause and diffrent symptoms. Therefore treatment for the right type is essential.</p> <p>Stress Incontinence: Unexpected leakage when you laugh, cough sneeze or exercise . This is usually caused by a weakend pelvic floor.</p> <p>Urge Incontinence: A strong and sudden urge to pass urine. The bladder tries to empty it’s self despite efforts to restrain the leakage.</p> <p>Overflow Incontinence: When your bladder does not empty completely urine builds up and in the end may dribble out as if overflowing.</p> <p>Mixed Incontinence: It’s not uncommon to have a combination of several of these symptoms.</p> <p>I’ll be doing a series of articles on this subject this week so make sure you don’t miss any but I found a great website that has <a href="http://mybladderproblem.com">bladder weakness</a> information if you want to know more.</p> <p>[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2f0vd9i-qjk[/youtube]</p> <script type="text/javascript" class="owbutton" src="http://www.onlywire.com/button" title="One Out Of Every Two Women Over 40 Experience Bladder Weakness How About You?" url="http://www.dreambodynow.com/?p=1742"></script> <div class="sociable"> <div class="sociable_tagline"> <strong>Share and Enjoy:</strong> </div> <ul> <li class="sociablefirst"><a rel="nofollow" id="del.icio.us" href="http://delicious.com/post?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dreambodynow.com%2Fone-out-of-every-two-women-over-40-experience-bladder-weakness-how-about-you%2F&title=One%20Out%20Of%20Every%20Two%20Women%20Over%2040%20Experience%20Bladder%20Weakness%20How%20About%20You%3F&notes=Bladder%20weakness%20one%20out%20of%20two%20women%20over%2040%20at%20some%20time%20in%20their%20lives%20so%20as%20most%20women%20have%20experienced%20bladder%20problems%20or%20will%20experience%20them%20during%20their%20life%20time%20why%20is%20it%20such%20a%20taboo%20subject" title="del.icio.us"><img src="http://www.dreambodynow.com/wp-content/plugins/sociable/images/services-sprite.gif" title="del.icio.us" alt="del.icio.us" style="width: 16px;
