Small everyday habits can make a real difference to bladder and pelvic health during perimenopause and menopause.

Bladder leakage, urgency, dryness and discomfort can become more common during perimenopause and menopause.

But common does not mean something should be ignored.

These changes can affect confidence, exercise, sleep, intimacy and the willingness to leave the house without planning every bathroom stop.

Support is available, and the right advice can make a meaningful difference. Speak with your GP, a Nurse Continence Specialist or a pelvic health physiotherapist if symptoms are affecting your everyday life.

Independence Australia also offers a wide range of continence products, delivered directly to your door in discreet packaging.

From fishing and golf to gardening, shopping and creative projects at home, Raymond’s days are shaped by choice, connection and the support he needs to live life his way.

As Raymond says:
“I feel more confident, more involved, and more positive about the future.”
