💚 Incontinence doesn’t affect everyone the same and for women, the impact can be especially heavy. NAFC’s survey shows that women are more likely to experience disrupted sleep, limited travel, and a loss of confidence due to incontinence. Many also feel less heard by their doctors.

💙 Treatment matters — but for many people living with incontinence, it’s only one piece of the puzzle.
NAFC’s survey shows that starting treatment often brings no improvement in emotional well-being — and in some cases, can make people feel even worse.

Why? Because incontinence isn’t just a physical condition.
It affects confidence, identity, relationships, and day-to-day life.

✨ That’s why whole-person care is essential.
Care that supports your emotional health, your mental health, and your quality of life — not just your symptoms.
