Urinary incontinence in women has a high prevalence and causes significant
morbidity. Given that urinary incontinence is not generally a progressive
disease, conservative therapies play an integral part in the management of these
patients. We conducted a nonsystematic review of the literature to identify
high-quality studies that evaluated the different components of conservative
management of stress urinary incontinence, including behavioral therapy, bladder
training, pelvic floor muscle training, lifestyle changes, mechanical devices,
vaginal cones, and electrical stimulation. Urinary incontinence can have a severe
impact on our healthcare system and patients' quality of life. There are
currently a wide variety of treatment options for these patients, ranging from
conservative treatment to surgical treatment. Although further research is
required in the area of conservative therapies, nonsurgical treatments are
effective and are preferred by some patients.
