Bladder Health

Take Control of Your Bladder

Many women wait years before seeing their doctors about bladder control problems. You don’t need to keep those problems a secret — whether you leak a bit when you sneeze or you wear pads just in case. Sanford Women’s is here to take care of your bladder health now.

Bladder problems in women are very common. In fact, as many as seven in 10 women experience involuntary loss of urine. 

While bladder control issues can be a part of aging or the result of having babies, they should not be ignored.
