Urinary Incontinence in Men

📋Overview

Urinary Incontinence in Men is characterized by the accidental loss of bladder control, which can range from minor leaking to complete emptying of the bladder. This condition is considered a symptom rather than an independent disease, often indicating a disruption in the complex coordination between the bladder and the muscles that control urine flow.

Clinical classifications often include stress, urge, overflow, and mixed incontinence, each representing a different physiological mechanism for leakage. These categories help distinguish the condition in men from similar issues in women, accounting for specific male anatomical and physiological factors.
