Abstract

One thousand and eight females selected at random answered questionnaires concerning urinary control. The findings were as follows: a) 34% admitted to some degree of incontinence; b) history of bladder and kidney infections did not appear to predispose to incontinence; c) parous women tended to experience incontinence more frequently than did nulliparous; d) the incidence of incontinence tended to increase with increasing number of children; e) incidence of incontinence increased with increasing age.
