How You Sleep May Cause Bladder Leaks: See the Best and Worst Positions

The article from MSN discusses how sleep positions can influence the occurrence of bladder leaks, particularly in women. It explains that the way one sleeps can either exacerbate or alleviate the pressure on the bladder. The worst sleep position for those experiencing bladder leaks is sleeping on the stomach, as it increases pressure on the pelvic area. Conversely, the best position recommended is sleeping on the back, which helps distribute body weight evenly and reduces pressure on the bladder. Side sleeping is also considered better than stomach sleeping but not as optimal as back sleeping. The article also suggests using pillows to support the body in maintaining these positions and mentions that elevating the legs slightly can further help in reducing bladder pressure. Additionally, it touches on lifestyle changes and pelvic floor exercises that can aid in managing and potentially reducing the frequency of bladder leaks.
