Abstract
Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is common among women and has a significant negative impact on daily functioning and quality of life. SUI also has a large economic impact on health systems necessitating the implementation of simple and cost-effective management plans.1 Although surgical treatments are widely used for SUI, many women prefer a self-managed conservative option to avoid long-term recurrence or possible devastating complications of surgical interventions. Moreover, some women are not eligible for surgery or prefer to defer it (i.e., women who plan to conceive). Pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT), vaginal devices, electrical stimulation and pharmacological agents (duloxetine) are conservative options for SUI.
