incontinencia de orina
Involuntary loss of urine. Many women find they leak urine during the last trimester when they laugh, cough, or sneeze. It is a result of the mounting pressure of the growing uterus on the bladder. Some women also experience stress incontinence postpartum as a result of the stretching of the perineal muscles. Kegel exercises can help strengthen the muscles.
