Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is a common problem among women, particularly after childbearing. While it is not in itself life-threatening, it inevitably impairs quality of life, causing embarrassment and even social isolation--this is often both the reason that people with SUI seek medical help and the method of measuring the success of treatment. A range of treatment and management options is available for dealing with this distressing condition.
