Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for follow up .
The bladder weakness does not start all of a sudden .UTI is the commonest cause in post menopausal age group which needs to be ruled out first before going for further diagnostic tests to confirm the other causes for urgency and frequency .
Consult qualified Urologist for clinical examination .He may advise for endoscopic examination of bladder (Cystoscopy )
I is utmost important to start symptomatic treatment .
