What treatment options are available for incontinence?

Treatment can be as simple and low intensity as performing Kegel / Pelvic Floor exercises. This however, requires discipline to do it regularly and understanding on how to engage the right muscles. Today's medical technology has advanced such that there are very high intensity, non-surgical treatments to help us rapidly strengthen the pelvic floor. You can find out more from Orchard Clinic's treatment. When conservative methods of treating stress incontinence don't work, surgery may be an option.
