Episode 75. Urinary Incontinence in Women with Dr Natharnia Young
Dr Natharnia Young is a leading urogynaecologist servicing South Eastern Melbourne’s suburbs and joins this conversation to discuss urinary incontinence in women, a condition associated with significant personal and social stigmatisation and affecting up to 1:2 women over the age of 70.
Rates of presentation by woman seeking management for stress incontinence and urge incontinence are low, perhaps on account of feelings of embarrassment and shame however there are many effective management strategies that Natharnia discusses in this very informative podcast episode. Please enjoy the conversation.
