WHEN SHOULD I CONSULT MY doctor?

URinControl is a self-training program. Never diagnose or treat yourself based on this system. Always consult with your physician.

If you don’t notice an improvement after 8 weeks of training we advice you to consult your physician. Your physician can offer you other treatments. Urinary incontinance can be treated in many patients. When the incontinence arises sudden, or gets worst fast (within weeks), you should consult your physician. If you pee blood, you should also consult a physician.  

If you have a condition affecting your bladder, please check with your physician if it is okay to start with URinControl4all.
