Questions about this guide
How can I stop leaking when I sneeze?
The moment you feel a sneeze, cough or laugh coming, gently tighten your pelvic floor, lean forward slightly and hold the squeeze until it passes. The guide calls this the squeeze before the sneeze, and it gets more automatic with practice.
Why do bladder leaks start in perimenopause?
Shifting hormones can soften the muscles that support the bladder, so light leaks often appear in your 40s. If leaks are frequent, painful or getting worse, talk to your doctor.
