Symptoms of incontinence
There are four different forms:

- reflex incontinence
- overflow incontinence
In urge incontinence, the loss of urine is accompanied by a strong urge to urinate. In contrast to urge incontinence, the loss of urine in stress incontinence occurs without a previous urge to urinate. This is where the urine is released during physical exertion. Another form is reflex incontinence, in which involuntary contractions of the bladder wall muscles result in leakage of urine. With overflow incontinence, residual urine remains in the bladder and is released uncontrollably.
