What are the types of Bladder Control for Men?

Men can have several types of bladder control problems. Urinary incontinence (UI) is the accidental leakage of urine. Urine can leak in three ways:           o when you cough, sneeze, or lift—actions that put pressure on the bladder           o following a sudden, strong urge to urinate           o as a constant dribbling; men with this problem usually need to urinate often   and only pass small amounts of urine each time. Overactive bladder is a condition in which the bladder squeezes urine out at the wrong time. You may have overactive bladder if you have two or more of these symptoms:           o urination eight or more times a day or two or more times at night           o the sudden, strong need to urinate immediately           o urine leakage that follows a sudden, strong urge to urinate
