Overactive bladder (urgency urinary incontinence) can feel overwhelming, emotionally and physically. Many women silently cycle through denial, frustration, and finally, acceptance. But living with constant urgency or leaking before reaching the bathroom doesn't have to be your “new normal.”In this episode, I break down first-line treatments for urgency incontinence, the practical, foundational steps every woman should try before turning to medications or procedures.You'll learn:How to keep a bladder diary to identify your personal triggers (from sparkling water to coffee).Why pelvic floor strengthening is key—and the difference between doing Kegels on your own vs. with support.How to practice urge suppression—the 5 quick contractions + calming breath technique that really works.The power of bladder retraining to teach your body to hold more comfortably over time.These tools don't just improve symptoms; they put you back in control, helping you feel less isolated and more hopeful.Additional resource, BLADDER DIARY. Take this first step toward confidence and freedom from urgency.

If you've been avoiding medicinal mushrooms because you're worried about immune stimulation, this conversation will change your mind. I talk with naturopathic doctor and mushroom expert Dr. Anna Sitkoff about how most medicinal mushrooms actually promote immune balance and tolerance.Anna explains how mushrooms support autoimmune healing on multiple levels: feeding beneficial gut bacteria, reducing pathogen load, and calming the nervous system. She shares which mushrooms work best for specific conditions, quality markers to look for when shopping, and why reishi is called the "mushroom of immortality."This episode opened my eyes to how these powerful healing allies can support our bodies naturally without overstimulating our already reactive immune systems.For the complete show notes and links visit inspiredliving.show/202
Episode 327: Bladder Leakage Is Common, But That Doesn't Mean It's Normal — with Dr. Alex Rogers I'm joined this week by my brilliant colleague and fellow urologist, Dr. Alex Rogers, for a candid, informative conversation about something way too many people silently struggle with: bladder leakage. We're two urologists talking all things pee — from stress incontinence to overactive bladder, and everything in between. Whether you're dealing with a sudden urge to run to the bathroom, leaking when you laugh or sneeze, or you're just confused about what's going on down there, this episode is for you. We break down the two most common types of bladder leakage — overactive bladder and stress urinary incontinence — and explain why they require totally different treatment approaches. We also talk about the huge impact of hormones on bladder health, especially in menopause (yes, estrogen matters here too!). Dr. Rogers and I dive into: Why bladder leakage is so common — and why we shouldn't normalize it The real science behind overactive bladder Why Botox is an underutilized but super effective treatment option How pelvic floor therapy fits into the bigger picture What's new and exciting in urology (hello, neuromodulation and telehealth) The frustrating role of insurance in limiting access to care How to find a provider who actually knows what they're doing when it comes to bladder health This isn't just a “deal with it” issue — it's a quality of life issue. And the good news? There are solutions. Real, evidence-based, life-changing options. But only if we talk about it. So let's talk. Takeaways: Bladder leakage is common but under-discussed Hormonal changes play a huge role in bladder function Overactive bladder ≠ stress incontinence — and treatments vary Botox is a powerful and underutilized option Telemedicine and new tech are changing the game Education empowers patients to advocate for better care Insurance hurdles are real — and we need to fight for better access Find the right specialist — not all care is created equal Let's stop suffering in silence and start empowering ourselves and our patients with facts, not shame.

If you've ever been prescribed medication for overactive bladder, you might wonder what it's actually doing and what the risks are. In this episode, I break down the two main types of medications used to treat OAB: anticholinergics and beta-3 agonists. We'll talk about how they work, the side effects (including memory concerns), and how to weigh the benefits and risks. I also explore alternative options like Botox and nerve stimulation, and why shared decision-making with your provider matters more than ever. If bladder urgency or leaking has been part of your life, this episode will help you make informed, confident choices about your treatment path.For more information on this topic: https://journals.lww.com/fpmrs/abstract/2017/05000/augs_consensus_statement__association_of.4.aspx#:~:text=Given%20the%20available%20evidence%2C%20which,medications%20in%20patients%20at%20risk.https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34213600/Timeline00:30 Introduction to Overactive Bladder 00:48 Behavioral Treatments for Overactive Bladder 00:57 Medications for Overactive Bladder 01:18 Anticholinergic Medications and Memory Concerns 01:37 Types of Medications for Overactive Bladder 03:55 Studies on Anticholinergics and Cognitive Impairment 03:23 Clinical Guidelines and Recommendations 04:26 Prevalence and Types of Overactive Bladder 05:00 Side Effects and Risk Factors 05:38 Research Findings on Anticholinergics 08:32 Considerations for Prescribing Medications 10:38 Alternative Treatments and Final Thoughts

In this episode, I sat down with Dr. Suzette Sutherland, a seasoned urologist who recently transitioned from the University of Washington to a large urology group in Arizona. Dr. Sutherland shares her expertise on treating overactive bladder (OAB) and the latest innovation in neuromodulation therapies, specifically focusing on the efficacy and safety of tibial nerve stimulation. We discuss the evolution of treatment guidelines, the pros and cons of various therapies, including medications, Botox, and sacral nerve stimulation, and dive deep into the promising results from the FDA-approved Revi device from BlueWind. Dr. Sutherland also sheds light on patient selection, procedural details, and patient compliance, while offering insights into the future of OAB treatments.For information on the REVI https://bluewindmedical.com/Timeline:00:30 Introduction and Guest Introduction01:10 Understanding Overactive Bladder and Treatment Options02:19 Tibial Nerve Stimulation: A New Approach02:40 Changes in Treatment Guidelines05:57 Mechanism of Tibial Nerve Stimulation09:38 Implantable Tibial Nerve Stimulation Devices13:39 Patient Experience and Compliance17:54 Comparing Neuromodulation Devices25:37 Comparing Revi and Eco Devices26:32 Understanding Device Placement and Stimulation Frequency27:18 Battery Life and Replacement Concerns29:33 New Devices on the Horizon30:03 Meta-Analysis of Tibial Nerve Stimulation32:49 Patient Choices: Sacral Nerve Stimulation vs. Tibial Nerve Stimulation38:22 The Role of Botox in Bladder Treatment46:14 Challenges and Innovations in Urogynecology
A paranormal investigator thought his co-op shift at Ottawa's Cumberland Heritage Museum would be routine—until the Dufour House slammed every shutter, turned summer air to ice, and dragged him upstairs to a blood-soaked bedroom that shouldn't exist. Trapped behind a door that felt welded shut, Matthew heard triple claw marks, angered a child spirit guarding a toy gun, and faced a towering black shadow that left him locked in a staring match for two full hours. Was it an overactive haunting—or the demon locals whisper about whenever babies burst into tears at the threshold? This is a daily EXTRA from The Grave Talks.

If you've tried lifestyle changes and medications for overactive bladder, but you're still dealing with urgency, frequency, or leaks, you're not out of options. In this episode, I break down tibial nerve stimulation, a lesser-known but powerful treatment for overactive bladder that's often overlooked in early care plans.I discuss what neuromodulation means in pelvic health, and how it works, why the tibial nerve (yes, the one near your ankle!) plays a key role in calming bladder activity, the differences between transcutaneous, percutaneous, and implant-based tibial nerve stimulation, what to expect from the procedure, how often it's done, and why so many women tolerate it well, and the best part? Minimal side effects and multiple delivery methods make this a versatile, low-risk option for many women, especially if medications haven't worked.For more information on this subject, check out:S2E12: Finding Freedom with Sacral Nerve StimulationS2E35:Innovations in Overactive Bladder Solutions with Isaac OppenheimLivezida.comAvation.comTimeline00:30 Introduction to Tibial Nerve Stimulation 01:14 Understanding Neuromodulation 02:05 Causes and Symptoms of Overactive Bladder 03:13 Sacral Nerve Stimulation Overview04:21 Focusing on Tibial Nerve Stimulation 06:18 Transcutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation 11:47 Percutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation 16:20 Conclusion and Future Episodes

If you've ever joked about “peeing just a little” when you sneeze, or you're the kind of person who always has to know where the bathroom is, this one's for you. Vanessa is sharing her personal (and super vulnerable) journey with bladder issues: how it started, the surprising symptoms, the anxiety it caused, and the expert-backed tools and tricks that actually helped. We asked our community if they've experienced bladder problems — and 62% of women said yes. So if you're in that group, or just curious to hear a side of health and intimacy we've never talked about before, tune in. This episode might just be a game changer for you. Here's a peek at what we cover: That awkward moment when you realize… something's off The role of pelvic floor physical therapy (and who V followed to learn more) Bad habits no one tells you are actually bad The urologist visit from hell (you won't believe what they said) How Vanessa trained her bladder like a dog (yes, really) Small changes that made a HUGE difference — and why Vanessa finally sleeps through the night Disclaimer: This episode is based on personal experience and is not intended as medical advice.

Welcome to the Hot Topics podcast from NB Medical with Dr Neal Tucker. In this episode, we are joined by Dr Stephen Bradley, lead author of a new paper published in the BJGP looking at rates of CXR use in general practice and how this influences lung cancer stage at diagnosis and mortality. He discusses the findings of his research and how this might influence our practice. In other research, we look at a new paper in the BMJ on orthostatic HYPERtension - yes, you read that correctly - does treatment help, and does it really matter in the first place? And from the Lancet, research looking at the role of urodynamic studies in women with refractory overactive bladder - does it improve outcomes, or should it be stopped?ReferencesBMJ Orthostatic hypertension and BP treatmentBMJ OH editorialLancet Refractory overactive bladder & urodynamic studiesBJGP CXR in GP & lung cancer staging and mortalitywww.nbmedical.com/podcast

Urinary incontinence is one of the most common yet least talked about issues affecting women's health. More than 1 in 3 women will experience an overactive bladder in their lifetime, and by the age of 70, that number jumps significantly. But here's the real question—does aging have to mean bladder issues? Or have we been misled into believing this is just “part of getting older”? In this episode, Shelley Craft sits down with Dr. Kelly Casperson to debunk the myths, break down the science, and—most importantly—explore real, effective solutions to improve bladder health at any age. What You'll Learn in This Episode:
LIFE LESSONS PODCAST || DARE TO BE VITAL BOOKFIVE PRIMARY POINTS of the PODCAST1. Your Nervous System Can Accelerate Aging—Take Control* Research suggests that an overactive sympathetic nervous system (the fight-or-flight response) is a hallmark of aging, contributing to high blood pressure, muscle tension, and even cancer progression.* Actionable Tip: Engage in stress-reducing activities like meditation, deep breathing, or mindfulness to help regulate your nervous system and slow down age-related decline.2. Poor Sleep is Destroying Your Muscle Mass—Fix It Now* A study found that poor sleep quality increases the likelihood of developing sarcopenia (low muscle mass) by 40%.* Actionable Tip: Prioritize high-quality, consistent sleep (7-9 hours) to maintain muscle strength. Simple habits like setting a regular bedtime and reducing screen time before sleep can make a huge difference.3. Exercise Unlocks an Anti-Aging, Fat-Burning Hormone* Intense exercise stimulates the release of IL-6, a powerful molecule that increases GLP-1 (the active ingredient in weight-loss drugs like Ozempic), regulates inflammation, and promotes muscle growth.* Actionable Tip: Incorporate high-intensity workouts into your routine to naturally boost IL-6 levels, improve metabolism, and enhance muscle regeneration.4. Rewiring Your Body's Electrical System Could Reverse Aging* Research is uncovering how our nerves control aging, suggesting that modifying nerve activity may help slow or even reverse aging.* Actionable Tip: Experiment with techniques like cold exposure, heat therapy, or breathwork, which may positively influence nervous system balance and longevity.5. Optimize Sleep for Peak Performance and Longevity* Sleep isn't just about rest—it's a biological powerhouse that boosts muscle repair, enhances memory, and lowers inflammation.* Actionable Tip: Follow a “sleep optimization protocol” by maintaining a consistent sleep schedule, optimizing your sleep environment (cool, dark, quiet), and avoiding stimulants before bed.By implementing these strategies, you can significantly enhance your vitality, performance, and long-term well-being. Dare to be vital!

Ohio-based Avation Medical has developed a bioelectric wearable device for at-home treatment of overactive bladder, promising improved quality of life for patients suffering from the most common cause of incontinence and urinary urgency.In Episode #38 of the MedTech Speed to Data Podcast, Andy Rogers discusses the Vivally System, entrepreneurship, and more with Avation Medical co-founder Jill Schiaparelli.Need to KnowBioelectric medicine is an alternative to pharmaceuticals and surgery — Selectively stimulating the nervous system can enhance, control, or fix a function without the tradeoffs of other treatments. Overactive bladder is a prime candidate for bioelectric solutions — Forty-five million Americans have overactive bladder, with nine million preferring adult diapers to traditional treatments.Nitty GrittyAlthough not fully understood, overstimulation of nerves in the bladder wall produces spasms, creating an urge to urinate as often as thirty times a day in extreme cases.Few sufferers choose sacral nerve stimulation, the gold standard treatment, which requires a device implanted near the spine to stimulate nerves regulating bladder behavior.“The moment you say surgery, it complicates things.” Schiaparelli explains. “You need a physician who knows how to do it, you need a patient who's willing to have what could be a very extensive surgery, and you need a payer who's willing to pay for the surgery.”Drugs for overactive bladder have unwelcome side effects that cause most patients to drop out of the care pathway. “When you look at those dynamics,” Schiaparelli says, “it screams a need. Patients want something that takes surgery out of the equation, doesn't have the side effects of drugs, and is convenient.”Avation Medical's Vivally System is an ankle-worn device that indirectly stimulates the sacral nerve through the tibial nerve without surgery. The device measures responses to adjust its stimulation automatically in real-time.“This physiologic closed loop allows the patient to have personalized, effective therapy in just thirty minutes once a week,” Schiaparelli says.Data that made a differenceAs a serial entrepreneur, Schiaparelli has learned that success requires understanding and meeting the needs of three key stakeholders: the patient, the physician, and the payer:Overactive bladder patients dissatisfied with traditional treatments are an enormous market. Most physicians can only offer prescriptions for imperfect drug therapies that do not generate revenue for their practices. Payers don't like either option since surgery costs reach $40,000 while drugs require lifetime prescriptions.“Every area we checked into, it made sense. This technology in this market checked all those boxes to say there's a need. We thought this was a real opportunity to disrupt the market.”But success requires addressing the needs of other stakeholders, including regulators and investors.Regulators' expectations, for example, drove Avation Medical's decision to implement quality control processes while starting its first clinical trial. “We knew that was going to be very important because we planned to use the clinical trial with our FDA submission.”Aligning Avation Medical's investors' expectations was just as important, with each investment round supporting the next stage in development and commercialization.Schiaparelli takes a holistic perspective on a Med Tech startup's data strategy.“It's speed, absolutely,” Schiaparelli says, “but it's also intelligent data that speaks to the needs of all the people that you'll need to demonstrate to down the line.”
