ResumoA 45-year-old woman reports leaking urine with coughing, laughing, or sneezing since the birth of her last baby. She has been unable to lose the 25 lb (11 kg) that she gained after that pregnancy. She voids every 3 hours and reports no urinary urgency or nocturia. Her incontinence keeps her from participating in her exercise class, and she leaks urine during sexual intercourse. Her body-mass index is 28, and a routine pelvic examination is normal. How should she be evaluated and treated?
