Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) impacts 35 million women. Women do not openly talk about the issue because of the stigma  often associated with bladder leakage. However, SUI affects women of all ages and, up until this point, there are options to help treat it ranging from surgery to use of a pad/liner to absorb leaks. Also there has been another change in the management of SUI with a new product, Poise Impressa Bladder Supports,  the first over-the-counter internal product. It helps prevent leaks before they happen.

Women do not need to feel isolated, but should instead be empowered to educate themselves on their options.
