Overactive Bladder

Bladder control problems affect tens of millions of people every day, and many people are reluctant to talk about it.   

  • Do you go more than 8 times per day?
  • Are you urinating often or frequently (i.e., peeing a lot)?
  • Do you feel like you have to pee a lot or have urinary urgency in men or women,
  • Are you asking yourself “why do I have to pee so much?”

Discussing your symptoms with your physician can be the first step to getting help.
