Bladder health

Bladder symptoms explained in plain language

Urgency, frequency and leakage — what the words mean and what they might indicate.

4 min read

Urgency means a sudden need to pass urine that is hard to postpone. Frequency means passing urine more often than usual.

Leakage can happen with effort, such as coughing or lifting, or alongside urgency. The pattern helps point to the cause.

Bladder symptoms affect both men and women, and there are effective approaches for most of them.

Describing what you experience in your own words is enough for a specialist to begin.
