Description
Staying Dry: A Practical Guide to Bladder Control is a highly acclaimed book that offers help to those suffering from urinary incontinence. Developed at the National Institute on Aging in association with the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, it combines medical advice with an action plan to solve incontinence problems in a matter of weeks.
Based on a step-by-step approach that has helped up to 90% of those who try it, this book tackles common myths about urinary incontinence and provides factual information. You'll learn that incontinence is not caused by aging, but rather a symptom of one or several medical disorders, and that 80-90% of known cases respond to the treatments described.
Half of all adult women and one in five men suffer from urinary incontinence at some point in their lives. If you're experiencing bladder problems that are taking control of your life, Staying Dry is a practical guide that can help put you back in charge.
