The Urology Care Foundation and the American Urological Association (AUA), together with the Bladder Health Alliance — a coalition of groups representing physicians, patients, and veterans — are drawing on November as a vital reminder to get the facts about common bladder health problems and to encourage the public to take an active role in managing their bladder health.
Millions of Americans daily struggle with the impacts of bladder conditions and diseases such as urinary incontinence, overactive and underactive bladder, interstitial cystitis, urinary tract infections, nocturia, bladder cancer, urotrauma, and neurogenic bladder. These can impact an individual’s health and quality of life and result in significant health costs.
Bladder Health Month is a great time to focus on connecting, educating, and empowering individuals to take control of their bladder health. Unfortunately, most Americans are still not yet talking to their healthcare provider about their bladder health symptoms because they are too embarrassed. In addition, many who suffer from urologic symptoms don’t realize they can often treat bladder conditions with simple lifestyle modifications such as diet and exercise.
