What Could Cause Leaking Urine With No Help From Miralex And Kegal Exercises At The Age Of 13?

Why am I leaking urine at the age of 13? I have tried kegels, used miralax for 3 days and have been drinking more water. This has been going on for about 7 months now. Is there anything I can do to make it stop? Is my urine leaking temporary or permanent?

Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
Urinary incontinence is a common and often embarrassing problem. The severity ranges from occasionally leaking urine when you cough or sneeze to having an urge to urinate that's so sudden and strong you don't get to a toilet in time. It can be caused by everyday habits, underlying medical conditions or physical problems. Urinary tract infection can irritate your bladder, causing you to have strong urges to urinate, and sometimes incontinence. Constipation- The rectum is located near the bladder and shares many of the same nerves. Hard, compacted stool in your rectum causes these nerves to be overactive and increase urinary frequency. Neurological disorders may be cause as well. It may be treated by Medications, biheviroal techniques, pelvic flood exercises or electrical stimulation and it depends on type of disorder.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health
