We Count! A new campaign to help women with incontinence

Did you realize that half of all women will experience incontinence? Or that more people have incontinence than either diabetes or heart disease? As alarming as those figures are, incontinence is still something that too few people are willing to talk about, and the end result is that millions suffer in silence – often for years and years – even though there are treatments that can work wonders for them.
That’s why NAFC is introducing the We Count campaign.

Urinary incontinence is the unintentional loss of bladder control, resulting in the leakage of urine. It can range from occasional dribbling when coughing or sneezing to a sudden, strong urge to urinate that prevents reaching a restroom in time. Commonly affecting older adults, urinary incontinence can occur in both men and women due to various causes, including weakened pelvic muscles, medical conditions, or certain medications.
