A NEW report from Monash
University has revealed the rising
tide of urinary incontinence, with
as many as one in eight healthy
young women suffering from the
condition.
Honours student Tessa O’Halloran
worked with Professors Susan Davis
and Robin Bell to survey 1000
healthy young women in
Melbourne, finding that
incontinence affected 12.6% of
women under 30, with no relation
to pregnancy.
“The findings are important as
previous studies have shown that
UI is closely related to pregnancy
and being overweight.
“However the extent to which UI
affects younger women who have
never been pregnant has not been
understood until now,” said Ms
O’Halloran.
The research will be presented at
the upcoming 15th Australasian
Menopause Society Congress in
Brisbane later this week.The above article was sent to subscribers in Pharmacy Daily's issue from 06 Sep 11 To see the full newsletter, see the embedded issue below or CLICK HERE to download Pharmacy Daily from 06 Sep 11
