Understanding Your Symptoms and Their Causes
Symptoms of Urinary Incontinence
Causes of Urinary Incontinence
Overactive Bladder Muscles
The detrusor muscles in the bladder wall contract too often, creating sudden urges.
Hormonal Changes
Lower estrogen levels during menopause can thin and weaken pelvic tissues.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does an incontinence specialist do?
An incontinence specialist assesses the nature and possible causes of bladder or bowel-control problems before recommending appropriate management. The assessment may involve reviewing symptoms, medications, medical history and bladder or bowel habits.
What symptoms may indicate that I need incontinence treatment?
You may benefit from an assessment if you experience repeated urine leakage, sudden urges that are difficult to control, frequent dribbling, difficulty emptying your bladder or bowel leakage. Discuss persistent symptoms with a qualified healthcare professional rather than simply tolerating them.
What happens during a private incontinence assessment?
Your private incontinence treatment consultation may begin with a detailed discussion of your symptoms and medical background. Depending on your circumstances, further assessment may include urine testing, pelvic or rectal examination, a bladder diary or a bladder scan to check whether urine remains after you have passed water.
Do you provide female incontinence treatment in Manchester?
Yes, female incontinence treatment can be tailored according to the individual's symptoms, medical history and underlying cause. Management may include conservative measures such as pelvic floor support or bladder training, with other options considered where clinically appropriate.
Can you treat different types of urinary incontinence?
A specialist assessment can help distinguish between conditions such as stress, urge, overflow and mixed incontinence. Because these problems can have different underlying causes, identifying the specific pattern is an important part of deciding what treatment may be suitable.
Will I need a bladder scan during my consultation?
Not everyone requires a bladder scan. Where overflow incontinence or incomplete bladder emptying is suspected, a post-void residual assessment may be recommended to determine how much urine remains in the bladder after urination.
Can incontinence be managed without an operation?
In many cases, clinicians consider non-surgical approaches first. Depending on the diagnosis, these can include lifestyle adjustments, pelvic floor muscle training, bladder training and, where appropriate, medication. The right approach depends on the individual's condition and clinical assessment.
Do you provide continence products as part of treatment?
Where clinically appropriate, continence care may include advice about products such as catheters, sheaths, pads or other devices. The most suitable option depends on the person's symptoms, mobility, bladder function and individual care requirements.
How much does private incontinence treatment in Manchester cost?
The cost of private continence care depends on the consultation, assessments and treatment required. The exact fee can therefore vary between patients. You can discuss the expected costs and recommended care before proceeding with treatment.
How can I book an appointment with an incontinence consultant?
You can book online appointments with Khan's Medical to discuss your symptoms and arrange an appropriate assessment. During your consultation, the Incontinence Consultant can review your concerns and determine whether further investigations or specialist treatment are appropriate.
