An overactive bladder is when the muscles of the bladder start to contract on their own, even when the volume of urine in your bladder is low. These are called involuntary contractions, and they create an urgent need to urinate.
An overactive bladder can affect people of all ages and is often associated with urge incontinence, which happens when someone feels an overwhelming need to urinate immediately.
Bladder overactivity can also cause other issues such as frequent urination, painful urination, urinary tract infections, urinary incontinence and urinary leakage.
In some cases, people with an overactive bladder may also have trouble emptying their bladders completely because they tend to experience urgent urinary incontinence. This means that they may not be able to get rid of all the urine in their bladder before they feel a strong urge to go again.
An overactive bladder can be caused by a number of factors, including neurological disorders, diabetes and hormonal changes.
