Top 5 Light Bladder Leakage Solutions
- See your doctor–a doctor can help you establish your triggers, health issues etc.
- Exercise–one helpful way to reduce leaks is to strengthen the muscles of your pelvic floor. You can do this with yoga, Pilates, tai chi, walking, and kegels.
- Lose weight–extra weight leads to a weak pelvic floor.
- Track your Triggers–to discover what may be triggering your LBL, look for patterns by tracking your food, drinks, and activities.
- Be proactive with LBL!–Carry LBL specific liners (like Poise Microliners) in your purse or athletic bag. Consider packing a just-in-case tote of extra pants and underwear.

Pregnancy definitely changed things for me… ARGGG
I have been able to track some of my triggers like citrus, but I still need a little backup sometimes.
Thanks for sharing. This is something that many women struggle with even though we may not admit it.
It’s unreal how many things can lead to LBL. It’s silly for us not to be prepared, especially with protection is as thin as discreet as this.
Some people just don’t understand – having a kid changes A LOT of things, especially down there. Thanks for these tips & recommendations!
Oh goodness, laugh and leak is what I do!
Coughing is my trigger. I cough so hard because of my asthma that I have issues.
Looking at that list, I have far too many triggers – yikes!
Great tips! I didn’t know that weight gain was a trigger.
That is definitely something to think about. I have heard that exercise help with this matter a big time
Thin pantyliners are a must! No one wants to feel as if they are wearing a thick diaper!
LBL is a terrible thing to deal with. Anything a person can do to help alleviate symptoms is a real plus. Great tips and great post!
Great tips. Of course, most people know that extra weight can exacerbate LBL, but I never knew that exercise could help with symptoms.
This is great. I don’t feel so alone. Poise is honestly a company I need to own stock in. From Hot Flash help to LBL I spend a fortune with them haha 🙂 Thank you for sharing and for the sample.
Since we’re being real, thin pantyliners such as Poise’s microliner can also significantly cut down on the occurrence of yeast infections for those prone to them! I just love how thin these microliners are, they are great for minor leakage and general confidence boosting.
Looks like a great product – and of course I love that Poise is mailing free samples and coupons to everyone!
I like to refer to it as mommy bladder.
Childbirth did me in! So now I can’t Cough or laugh or
Sneeze without an issue! Good grief. So glad to know there is something to help! They keep looking at me weird when I have to stop walking and cross legs when sneeze comes on. Darn kids…they did this to me! lol.
Exercising is so important! I try to do some every day.
I don’t have leakage issues, but there is a whole group of moms in my zumba class who do & there is always a collective sigh when a song with jumps comes on!
