Avatar m tn re basically losing the ability to make estrogen, which is needed for muscle development. If you deprive them of that estrogen too early in their life, they lose muscle tone, or don't develop enough muscle tone, in their bladder, and subsequently, leak all over the place. **** (*What the internet says: Urinary incontinence may be caused by an underdeveloped urinary system or may arise as a part of the aging process.
Avatar f tn Hot flashes and night sweats Irritability, mood swings and depression Loss of libido and energy Trouble sleeping Urinary incontinence Vaginal dryness Weight gain (especially in the abdomen, hips and thighs) I am 54 and was thrown into surgical menopause 20 years ago. I used synthetic estrogen for 16 years. I tried to get off of it and wow did I get hit hard with menopause symptoms. So now I've been on bioidentical hormones for the last 4+ years.
Avatar f tn First off, please don't tell me to see a doctor. I can't right now. I want to treat with vitamins and herbs anyway. I'm pretty sure I'm either estrogen dominant or deficient, but I can't be sure which. It seems that I have most of the symptoms for both, and not just the ones they have in common. I'm obviously leaning toward dominant because it's much more likely being 27 years old.
Avatar n tn I had some estrogen deficiency symptoms for quite a few months. If your estrogen deficiency symptoms are really bad, you could consider taking phytoestrogen supplements such as Soy, Black Cohosh, Ginseng, Red Clover or **** Quai.
Avatar n tn Our dog was the same age, she would wet herself when she was sleeping. The vet put her on Stilbesterol, I think its some type of an estrogen medication. It worked while we had her on it, I don't know if they have to stay on it for good, or its just temporary.
Avatar f tn Yea but it happens for me from the beginning... Not to mention with this pregnancy I've had incontinence.

572550 tn?1217185235 Your adorable Goldendoodle is leaking urine because she is a spayed female and has an estrogen dependent incontinence. Your veterinarian should run a urinalysis to rule out cystitis and radiograph her bladder to rule out bladder stones.There is a medicine called Proin which controls incontinence nicely. The tucked vulva is probably unrelated.
Avatar m tn The treatment of urgency incontinence usually consist of Estrogen vaginal cream, avoidance of foods and drink that cause bladder irritation, urgency suppression techniques, and medication. For those patients that do not respond to these therapies, other treatments, Tibial Nerve Stimulation, Interstim treatment, or Botox injections can be done. J.
Avatar n tn however, at that age also consider urinary incontinence due to decreasing estrogen levels. after ruling out bladder infection/ stones/ metabolic problems your vet may want to try estrogen supplement the arthritis can be eased with new non-steroidal meds from your vet. reduce her weight and try some physical therapy on the affected joints.
Avatar m tn Hello, This wetting of bed is called adult urinary incontinence. It can be due to overtaking the fluids at night, urge incontinence, inappropriate bladder contractions. constipation, infection ,a stone in the bladder ,use of diuretics ("water pills") and thinning of tissue due to decreased estrogen after a woman goes through menopause. Please get it evaluated from a urologist.
Avatar m tn In a study of 226 spayed female dogs, a greater percentage of dogs treated with Incurin improved compared to dogs treated with placebo. Incurin was shown to be effective for the control of estrogen-responsive urinary incontinence in spayed female dogs 1 year and older." Hope this is helpful.
Avatar f tn It took me a long time to figure out what this was, as for a couple of years I thought it was just a worsening of my stress incontinence. I eventually worked out that I was dribbling after I thought I had completed emptying my bladder. That is, I would finish urinating - the stream had stopped completely - but when I stood up and pulled up my knickers they would suddenly be wet.
Avatar n tn Are you sure that your dog is just peeing or are you finding wet spots? It can likely be estrogen. That is the issue with our female spayed lab and have seen it in many other breeds. Urinary incontinence is a common disorder of older female dogs, as many as 20% of neutered ******* develop it at some point in their lives. The reason is usually urethral sphincter mechanism incompetence (USMI).
Avatar f tn Completely different medications are needed to treat urinary incontinence such as estrogen supplements or products like Phenylpropanolamine (PPA) which is also labelled as Proin.
Avatar f tn Hello, I am 46 years old. For the past 6 months or so my periods have been irregular. Some months my period is every 19, then 33 days, then 46 days, etc. Last month it was 46 days now I have started at 15 days. The flow itself has been normal and lasted 4-5 days. Should I be concerned or can I wait for my pap in May (last pap was May 2008, and last ultrasound August 2007) to talk to my Dr. I do seem to have some insomnia and sweating at night as well.
Avatar f tn Hello, This wetting of bed is called adult urinary incontinence. It can be due to overtaking the fluids at night, urge incontinence, inappropriate bladder contractions, constipation, infection ,a stone in the bladder, post menopause( due to thinning of tissue due to decreased estrogen) and use of diuretics ("water pills").If it is the first episode of bed wetting then you should go to bed without a full bladder. But if the repeat happens, then please get it evaluated from a urologist.
Avatar f tn I will discuss her treatment in light of what you have said with the vet when he sees her later this month for her routine blood checks for her thyroid. It has certainly given me something to think about!
Avatar f tn Both had very low counts of bacteria. No physical cause has been found but I am post menopause and have problems with urinary incontinence so wear pads 24 hours a day. I'm 63 and do not take / use estrogen creams or replacement therapy. NOT sexually active for 5 or more years. Doctor gave me 10 days of Suprax this second time. Will that rid my intestines of the KP? If not, what can I do to prevent this again?
Avatar f tn What you may notice is symptoms of estrogen deficiency. I had quite a few estrogen deficiency symptoms for the next four months after surgery due to my left ovary being removed. The other ovary eventually takes over the duties of the ovary that was removed....thankfully! To help with estrogen deficiency symptoms, there are phytoestrogen supplements that mimic estrogen such as Soy, Black Cohosh, Ginseng, Red Clover or **** Quai.
739070 tn?1338603402 HI All, I received this update on one of the medical sites I use and thought there might be some interest. Botox has been used off-label for urinary incontinence but it is FDA approved which may help those whose insurance won't pay for off-label use of drugs. The article is shown below: FDA NEWS RELEASE For Immediate Release: August 25, 2011 Media Inquiries: Jeffrey Ventura, 301-796-2807, jeffrey.
1951021 tn?1324580615 Incontinence in aging spsayed females is not uncommon. By using the Depends you are doing about all you can do to help this situation unless you want to start medicating her for it. There is a new drug that has been introduced called Incurin that is used to treat estrogen-responsive incontinence in female dogs. When females are spayed they don't produce the estrogen necessary to keep muscle tone in the muscles that control the ability to hold back urine, resulting in incontinence.
Avatar n tn She is home and independent with good recovery from the stroke. She lives alone. Prior to stroke she was on estrogen for several decades. She is 85 years old. Is this from lingering neurological complications? Will this improve with time? Should she have a urinalysis on a regular basis when no pain is involved? THANK YOU!
