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

[@bluejean-1968]

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

[@annab5090]

Oh wow, just quickly looked it up. Looks great.

[@jessicahitchens6926]

Estradiol can't be sold over the counter. Your talking minuscule amounts. And how strong is the Progesterone ?? I've used those products not strong enough. Especially the Oestrogens. You can add them but you also need BHRT.

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!

[@robinham2796]

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

[@janiec5185]

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

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!

It's big business for Corporations and all the industries profiting. They know all this... women are cash cows.

[@jessicahitchens6926]

Fails on purpose

[@Hollowmoon007]

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.

[@cintiaspataro3205]

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👏🏼❤️Thank you Dr Felice Gersh

[@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

[@annab5090]

@@bluejean-1968This Dr actually does hormone pulsing to mimic what our bodies do. You get bleeding just like a period but without the ovulation (if you are post menopause) If I remember correctly you do progesterone 2 weeks on 2 weeks off, or something close to it. Listen to her many other lectures. She explains it in detail and believes based on the results her patients are having that it is the best and optimal way for us to preserve health, vitality and yes youthfulness. Skin is an organ as well. 😘 Good luck.

@@123STEP23It’s a simple application vaginaly. I have Estradial 0.01% It’s a very small amount but apparently it’s enought to keep the tissue healthy. I have no more dryness and sex doesn’t hurt anymore. It also prevents other conditions.

[@iamblessed6741]

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

[@jessicahitchens6926]

Pelvic floor excercises and pilates. You need both. Your pelvic floor is weak.
