Symptoms of urinary incontinence after childbirth are curable for most women. Postpartum urinary incontinence results from the relaxation and strain of the pelvic floor muscles during pregnancy and childbirth, thus it is necessary to exercise these muscles after giving birth. Additionally, pelvic physiotherapy can also be performed. Generally, normal function can be restored within six months, and for those in better health, recovery can occur as soon as one month postpartum. It is critical to adhere to treatment under medical guidance when experiencing urinary incontinence; otherwise, the impact on a woman's health can be significant, affecting normal social interactions and work.
