Urine losses during menopause are somewhat common. We enter a new phase where estrogens are reduced and this causes the muscles that control the bladder to weaken. While it is true that it is something that worries many women, we also have to say that it can always be controlled and corrected.
It will not be the loss of urine in menopause that limits our lifestyle. We started a new era in our life, but a time full of good moments that we will have to enjoy to the fullest. So, apply these tips so that nothing prevents your day from being full of adventures.
Urine leaks at menopause, types
First of all, let's get to know the different types of urinary incontinence. Although we know that they become a great problem for women, today we will see how this problem can be solved and in different ways.
Stress incontinence
In this case, the loss of urine comes after having done some type of exercise or, by laughing a lot, by coughing or perhaps through sneezing. In this case, it appears that the pelvic floor it is who is to blame for those losses. Despite this, we do not want to stop doing everything we love. So, so that this does not affect our lives, nothing like being well protected. In what way? Well, with TENA Lady. A traditional product that has now been renewed and offers us a compress that is 20% thinner. Something perfect to be comfortable but not notice that we are wearing them.
Urge incontinence
In this case we are talking about a great urge to urinate, which you can barely control, before reaching the bathroom. It is said that women who have a few extra pounds, this process can be aggravated by abdominal pressure. To always be safe, you can leave the house with your TENA Lady Discreet Normal. Because within its range, normal will be perfect for those losses from mild to moderate. In addition, you will not notice anything that you are wearing because it has a highly absorbent and anatomical design to adapt to your style.
Exercises against urinary incontinence
The most common are called kegel exercises. They are intended to improve all types of incontinence. Why? Because thanks to them they will strengthen the bladder muscles. To start these types of exercises, we have to do pelvic contractions for about 3 seconds, while breathing normally. Then we rest and contract again, rising for a few more seconds. We will have to gradually reach up to 10. They can be done three times a day, a total of 10 exercises. If you are constant, in a few weeks you will notice its effect. Also try do yoga and pilates.
It is also spoken in a way of control bladder to reduce incontinence. Yes, although it is hard to believe, we must be able to control it. For this they advise breathing calmly when we have the need to go to the bathroom. Imagination also plays good tricks in this case, so let's think about how we can control that urge to go to the bathroom. You can even think of your favorite song or that dream vacation. Everything serves to try to drive away the thought we have on going to the bathroom. All of this is about establishing a kind of schedule to urinate.
Your best diet
How could it be outdone, diet also influences. That is why we must reduce coffee and all those products with caffeine. In the same way, spicy foods or alcohol are not good for us either. What we do need are foods rich in fiber and maintain a healthy weight. If you are one of those who drink a lot of liquid, try to spread it throughout the day so that the bladder can process it. In the same way, we will opt for fresh foods, we will leave aside fats and excess sugars.
Natural medicine
A highly recommended option is to take horsetail infusions as well as fennel, they will make your bladder release completely in a totally natural way.
