Do you have a weak or dropped bladder? Well I do. I had a complete hystorectomey 34 years ago, this has caused my bladder to drop.At times this can be very embarrasing for me. If I caugh real hard or laugh alot, at times, I can pee my pants a little bit(guess i might need depends!!)I do take medication for this I take enablix but I still have mishaps at times. Do you have any problems with your bladder?

I'm just beginning to have that problem. I'm not sleeping at night cause in the bath room every hour or two and it's like that all day. U had a hysterectomy too 21 years ago and am sure it's dropped. Waiting to see a urologist now to see what the next step is.

After coming down with a virus that went around, I was left with an annoying cough. Every time I cough, I urinated a few drops. I have never had a problem with my bladder until that time, and never wanted to live the rest of my life wearing a pantiliner. After taking proper treatment it looks ok now.

Well, this does happen to us from time to time when we are ill, but it does get corrected. I am glad you are now over this. My situation will require surgury.

Well you do know what I am taling about. They say a lot of women have this problem. They want me to have surgury, but unless it gets real bad, I will just take the pills.
