What Causes Urinary Incontinence?

I recently turned 60 years old. Three times within the last two weeks I started to urinate in bed during the middle of the night. I was able to stop it almost immediately but there was still leakage. What might be happening and which type of specialest should I see?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having some prostate problem like enlarge prostate or some infection.
This can be due to lax pelvic floor muscle and sphincter causing this problem.
Consult Urologist and get examined.
Ok and take care.
