  • Are Little Leaks Shattering Your Confidence?


    With women today having increasingly hectic schedules, regular changes of the female body can interfere with the smooth running of their lives. Where some such changes are easily discussed, others are considered to be a bit of a taboo subject – one being sensitive bladder.

    The creators of Always are aiming to break this taboo by helping women with sensitive bladder to realise that they are not alone and providing a new product ‘Envive by Always’ to enable them live a confident and unrestricted life.

    Sensitive bladder is experienced by women of all ages and affects 1 out of 4 women – embarrassing leaks are often experienced when laughing, coughing, sneezing or exercising. In fact, it’s estimated that 6 million women in the UK have some degree of sensitive bladder.

    Currently, a majority of women use bulky, uncomfortable products or pads and liners which are not necessarily designed for sensitive bladder… so a little laugh can mean a little leak, and without the right protection a little leak can seriously affect your confidence and can have a major impact on your life.

    Health expert Dr Trisha Macnair understands that a sensitive bladder can affect your confidence, self esteem and relationships. She suggests some simple steps that could help your life and body run more smoothly:

    “Lifestyle measures help most women, including dietary changes and bladder training. Things like choosing decaffeinated varieties of tea and coffee and exercising to strengthen the muscles of the pelvic floor can all help control a sensitive bladder. Also, don’t panic if you have a sudden small leak when you laugh or cough! It’s a common problem for women and usually easily managed by discreet protection.”

    Confidence and self-esteem coach Dawn Breslin is eager to encourage women to talk to each other about issues such as sensitive bladder on Thursday 10th April 2008, which is ‘Women Talk Day’:

    “A sensitive bladder can be an embarrassing topic but so many women experience it - they shouldn't feel worried about discussing it with their doctor or friends. Surprisingly, it affects more people than hay fever so chances are, your friends will be relieved to hear they’re not alone. Encouraging women to talk to each other and realising how common a sensitive bladder is helps to break down the taboo and enables women to feel more confident - so get talking ladies!”

    On Thursday 10th April, Dr Trisha MacNair and Dawn Breslin will be answering your questions LIVE Time: tbc
