Embarrassment. Frustration. Unanswered questions. For many people living with bladder or bowel conditions, these feelings can become just as challenging as the symptoms themselves.

In this episode of Life Without Leaks, we’re joined by board-certified urogynecologist Dr. Jannah Thompson and patient advocate Morgon for an honest and inspiring conversation about navigating the healthcare journey. Morgon shares his deeply personal story, from developing debilitating bladder symptoms as a young U.S. Marine to years of searching for answers, learning to advocate for himself, and ultimately finding treatments that transformed his life.
