Overactive Bladder Syndrome

Overactive Bladder Syndrome (OAB) is a condition that affects how your bladder functions, causing a frequent and urgent need to urinate, often with little warning. People with OAB may experience increased trips to the bathroom during the day and night, and in some cases, may even have leakage episodes. This can impact daily activities, sleep, and overall quality of life. The cause is often related to muscle contractions in the bladder, and it can affect individuals of any age, though it is more common in older adults. Treatment options include lifestyle changes, medications, and sometimes therapy.
