We’re baaaack…talking about Light Bladder Leakage again!
This is such an important topic for so many women. Light bladder leakage (LBL) happens in 1/3 of all women, it’s very common. Just what exactly IS light bladder leakage? LBL is the a light uninvited urinary leakage that occurs with certain triggers.
Top 10 Light Bladder Leakage Triggers
LBL can be triggered by a variety of things. Here’s the top 10 LBL Triggers:
- Changes from childbirth, pregnancy, hysterectomy or menopause
- Being overweight
- Medical complications
- Infections (bladder or urinary)
- Bladder irritants (eg. certain foods, etc)
- Coughing or laughing
- Sneezing
- Exercising or lifting
- Urge incontinence
- Mixed symptoms
So what Light Bladder Solutions do I have? How do I cope?
There are many solutions to light bladder leakage. Today I am going to offer you 5. For even more detail, head over to the Poise website for a full discussion of triggers, light bladder leakage solutions, and FAQs.
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.

I know my grandmother really struggled with little bladder leaks even after surgeries. I realize how lucky I really am to not have this problem. Thanks for bringing attention to the problem.
I am not ashamed to admit that after three kids my bladder isn’t the same . 🙂 Thanks for sharing. 🙂
this is a very common problem I’ve been hearing with a lot of women, I face this a bit as well, probably because I gained a lot of weight recently.. thanks for sharing this..
I love poise! I can’t sneeze, laugh, cough, (or god forbid all 3 at once) without praying for dry pants! Great post, thanks for sharing 🙂
I do have the cough/laugh/sneeze issues with this and it can be embarrassing. I need something like Poise sometimes. Thanks
Unfortunately this is an issue with both men & women. If you live long enough you’ll be surprised how many changes your body will experience.
If you develop any light leakage,see your doctor and be screened for uterine cancer…especially if you start spotting after your period.
I have fibromyalgia and loose control if I couch etc. when I have a flare-up. I love use Poise they are the best and I carry them with me everywhere. Thanks for sharing
I’ve never had this problem myself but it’s good to have this information as I get older. Thanks!
I have some of those with me at all times.
I know a lot of woman deal with this issue. When I let out the big sneeze I hope nothing happens!
You know the peeing while laughing and sneezing only happened to me while I was pregnant. I use these a lot though regardless.
Yes, I have this problem after having kids. I can’t sneeze or cough with out having to deal with this.
I remember my grandma not being able to laugh too hard. I forgot about it until now. We’d laugh with her, but it probably wasn’t all that funny for her!!
panty liners will really healp. I experienced this when I was pregnant and I have UTI.
Sneezing is definitely a very cautious event for me. LOL Thanks a lot daughter….
This is a problem I often have. I hate to admit that but after a C-section and old age that is just the facts. I hate using period pads as they just aren’t as effective. Thanks for this review. On a side note I say a comment you made earlier on another website where you said you just got back from Lake Murray in SC. I live an hour from here and we spend so much time at this lake. It is absolutely beautiful. It made me curious about where you live?
Rena, My brother has a cottage on lake Murray. I am from Michigan. It’s such a lovely lake. Shelley
That’s so funny because when we go for an escape and some fun we usually head to Michigan. We love Mackinaw Island! Been there many many times!
I have a small problem too but thankfully it hasn’t gotten worse. Never thought about microliners. Will be thinking about this!
I carry those pads in my purse
This is a common problem that is often not talked about. I write about incontinence for a client and I am shocked about how little info is shared about it. Good for you!
