@viva923 Live long enough and things stop working as good as they used to. I read that the device sends mild electrical pulses to the sacral nerves. I never knew about the connection between the sacral nerves and our organs that 'eliminate'.
I know this was true of my Ma and her sisters and it's true of me.... over the years women have been hard on their bodies by doing things traditionally done by men. I don't know if this issue happens in women more than men, but I could see it if it does. That and the number carrying a baby does on a woman's body.

The older I get the more I wonder if people were not meant to live as long as we do now, given all the things that start to malfunction on our bodies as we age.
I also think the urinary problem affects men as they age too. Pretty much every guy has prostate problems when they get middle age and up. They're up in the middle of the night just like we are. Well, I am anyway!🤗
And to some degree I think it can be hereditary. My mother, sisters, and I all have had leaking to some degree or another. And I haven't even had any biological children, so mine is not because of that.
Years ago my gynecologist said that a tilted bladder can also contribute to loss of control. But I still think age is the biggest offender, unless you definitely have some other condition, of course.
TMI?🤭
