All patients experience stress incontinence, which may involve leakage of a few drops for several days to months.
Stress incontinence occurs after surgery, and its duration depends on the patient’s age.
Patients wear adult pull-up diapers and are taught Kegel exercises until the leakage stops.
Expertise in nerve-sparing techniques has reduced leakage times over the years, and age affects recovery.
Leakage resolves soon, and patients regain bladder control with proper care and exercises.
