Stress Urinary Incontinence
Stress urinary incontinence is the involuntary loss of urine that occurs during activities that increase abdominal pressure, such as coughing, laughing, sneezing, lifting heavy objects, or exercising (like jumping on a trampoline or running).
This condition is usually caused by weakening of the pelvic floor or direct trauma to the fascia and ligaments of the pelvic floor, such as during childbirth.
