What type of incontinence is characterized by involuntary urine leakage with activity?

Stress incontinence is characterized by involuntary urine leakage that occurs during activities that increase abdominal pressure, such as coughing, sneezing, laughing, or physical exercise. This type of incontinence is often caused by weak pelvic floor muscles or loss of bladder support, which leads to the inability of the urethra to close fully during these activities. Unlike urge incontinence, which is associated with a strong, sudden need to urinate, or functional incontinence, which is due to physical or cognitive impairments preventing one from reaching the restroom in time, stress incontinence specifically relates to the leakage that happens under stress due to exertion.
