Facing bladder dysfunction can be a frustrating and sensitive topic, but it's more common than you might think, especially for those living with Type 2 diabetes. Some people notice they need to go more often and feel like their bladder doesn’t fully empty, while others have a harder time holding it in and need to wear protection all the time to counteract the leakage.
❓ Have you experienced unexpected bladder leaks?
❓ Do you think diabetes plays a role in your symptoms?
❓ Have you found anything that helps manage this issue?
