DESCRIPTION:

"World Continence Week is a timely reminder that most people affected by incontinence can be treated, better managed, and even cured. It is important people make the call for help," says the CEO of the Continence Foundation of Australia, Rowan Cockerell.

Millions worldwide suffer from incontinence, but they don't need to. It's highly treatable, yet only thirty percent seek help. World Continence Week hopes to change that and encourage those suffering to speak up and get on with their life.

According to the Continence Foundation of Australia:

Most people affected by incontinence can be better treated, managed, or even cured.

About five million Australians – one in four aged 15 years or over—are incontinent.

By 2030, the prevalence of incontinence is estimated to increase to 6.5 million Australians.

Seventy percent of incontinent people do not seek help.

Eighty percent of people who report they are living with incontinence are women.

Half of those women are under 50 years.

One in three women who have given birth wet themselves.

One in five leaks when they laugh.

Twenty-five men say they are, or were, incontinent.

Incontinence impacts self-esteem, motivation, dignity, and independence.
