Loss of Control of Urine in Women

Sometimes loss of urine control can be caused by a very serious medical problem that needs immediate medical attention. Please consider the following questions.

• Did the loss of control start suddenly, within the last few days?

• Do you have loss of control over your stool or bowel movements as well?

• Do you have any new weakness in your arms or legs?

• Do you have any numbness or tingling?

• Do you have new back pain?

• Did you pass out or lose consciousness when you lost control of your urine?

• Are you or were you slurring your speech?

• Do you or did you experience a loss of vision?

  Yes, at least one of these is true for me.

  No, none of these are true for me.
