Stress Incontinence: why you might pee when you cough, and what to do about it | Felice Gersh, MD

Estriol cream is available over the counter. Same with progesterone and estradiol cream. Ona's Naturals sells it. It's affordable.

Thank you, thank you! This is so helpful. Matter of fact, I ve been having a bad respiratory infection and the strong coughs means lots of incontinence, it's so distressing. I ve gone to buy myself 3 boxes of pads, I am too scared of running out of pads...Now, I have hope! Thanks again Dr. Gersh!

Dr. Gersh touches on every aspect and potentiality of urine incontinence. Highly informative!

Estradiol solved this for me. HOORAY 😁

[@cintiaspataro3205]

Indeed, it did for me as well, after suffering for a bit over 10 years, although the last 4 years it was worse. Thank God after only ONE month of vaginal estrodiol it is gone. Can't believe the number of doctors I mentioned this to and NOT EVEN ONE associated it with the loss of hormones. It is infuriating! This proves the system is failing BIG TIME FOR DECADES!

Excellent video! SO much good info. I wish you were my doctor.

Hi Dr Gersh. Can you please address when is it possible during perimenopause to start systemic estradiol? Really looking forward to the improvements one day.

Yep, some days have to change 4-5 times a
Day and if I’m out, it’s embarrising

[@iamblessed6741]

I take vaginal estradiol & still experience incontinence when walking, sneezing or coughing

[@cleanqueen75]

Are you talking about using Estradiol cream used vaginally? I’ve been on the cream since 2012 but I rub it on my wrists or other areas? Does that do the same thing as far as incontinence?

[@PatB415]

Following.....I'm curious too!
And vaginally, would it also be 3 wks on, 1 wk off in Menopause?

[@bluejean-1968]

​@@PatB415 You don't need to take a break from hormones. That makes no sense.

[@123STEP23]

Estradiol vaginally , who ever prescriber can tell dose and frequency
