Summary
Stress urinary incontinence is when you leak urine accidentally, especially during exercise or when you cough, laugh or sneeze.
The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) has produced a diagram that shows what treatments NICE recommends as options for managing stress urinary incontinence. If you have tried to manage your condition without surgery, but this hasn’t worked, you might like to think about surgery.
This decision aid can help you and your surgeon decide together which type of surgery is best for you. You might also decide that you don’t want to have any surgery. It is important to make the choice that you feel is right for you. This will depend on your individual circumstances and how you feel about each type of surgery.
Every woman is different, so this decision aid is only a guide. Information about how this decision aid was produced and the evidence on which it is based is available on the NICE website.
