Description

I investigated urinary incontinence during pregnancy and after delivery. I sent self-completion questionnaires to 160 women who had undergone Cesarean section delivery and to 301 women after vaginal delivery. I analyzed a total of 255 women. Women after vaginal delivery have a much higher incident of urinary in continencc than women after Cesarean section. However, urinary incontinence after vaginal delivery gradually improved to normal. During pregnancy, multiparas experience urinary incontinence significantly, with a greater amount of urine increased. At present, 18. 8% of pregnant women experience urinary incontinence, and 6. 3% of pregnant women must change their underwear as a result. At present, 10 of 16 women with urinary incontinence before pregnancy have urinary incontinence after delivery, among women who underwent vaginal delivery. Moreover factors influencing urinary incontinence are the primipara's body weight and constipation.
