Brief Answer:
Urinary incontinence problem

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

This is not normal with females. Same time, it is not a very serious problem. However, it needs to be addressed by undergoing few investigations.

You might be having urinary incontinence problem(which can again be due to different types like stress incontinence, overflow incontinence etc) or can just be due to urinary tract infection.

To properly diagnose your problem, you might need a through physical exam, urological evaluation and investigations like urodynamic studies, urinalysis etc.

A coordinated visit to Gynecologist and Urologist will be useful.

Thanks!
