What causes urine leakage during pregnancy

Urinary incontinence is a behavior in which the human body cannot control its urinary system. Some pregnant women will experience this problem. At the beginning, they may not pay much attention to this problem. As the number of times increases, pregnant women will gradually realize the importance of the problem. In fact, urinary incontinence is a disease that requires specific examinations, and there are many reasons for this. So what is the reason for urinary incontinence during pregnancy?

Some pregnant women may experience urinary incontinence, which is normal. It may occur more frequently and severely in the third trimester, mainly because the enlarged fetus compresses the bladder and urethra. After entering the late pregnancy, the pregnant woman's weight gains very quickly and her abdomen has become very large. The abdomen, intestines, stomach and bladder are under pressure, and you often feel stomach discomfort and are particularly prone to back pain. Frequent urination will become more severe and vaginal discharge will increase, so some pregnant women will experience urinary incontinence.

In general, when pelvic floor muscle exercises are used to treat urinary incontinence, the treatment plan includes the following elements:

The number of contractions, the frequency of movement, the duration of a contraction, and the cycle. Experts recommend that you start with more contractions. The recommended exercise frequency is every day, which can be completed in 3 to 4 times. The duration of a contraction can start from 2 to 3 seconds and then gradually increase to 10 seconds if the muscles are weak and the contraction cannot last for 10 seconds. As for the length of the cycle, generally speaking, it takes more than 3 months to see initial results, so you must persevere.

If pregnant mothers are afraid of embarrassing situations on the street, they can only urinate frequently and try to control water and salt intake. Exercise your pelvic floor muscles regularly, and also pay attention to preventing constipation and avoiding lifting heavy objects.
