If you drink any carbonated drinks before bedtime, this can cause leakage. If you drink any caffeine, it can cause leakage. These can occur at any age. I know since I have had it happen . If you are male it can be because you have a prostate problem, an enlarged prostate, calked BPH, may be the cause. I am male but mine
is caused by a false entry into my bladder, whereby my urine poles
into 2 different areas so I do not empty completely, per my urologist. I had a cystoscopy which indicated the diagnosis. A scoperation is put through a male penis to locate if there is a problem. I know nothing about female atatomy, but I assume it is the same.
It is also called overactive bladder, or stress. incontinence or a contracted bladder. In males it is also called post drip dribbling. Mine was simply called dribbling. If you look on the internet there are ways to help stop it, butsome report they don't or do help. Only a doctor can determine if it is possible. Others resort to padding or adult diapers.
In my case, I don't leak as much as I did in the past , mostly because I am on a reduced drinking habit due to being on dialysis. I am limited to 4 cups of liquid (US standards ), which includes any water, juices, ice cream, or anything the turns to liquid including gelatin products.
I am not a doctor, so ask the advice from a doctor.
Don't be embarrassed, I am sure doctors have heard about these problems from both men and women. Young and old.
My problem started at age 20 and it still occurs at age 66. I use padding, I tried the commercial male padding but it was too bulky and I prespired too much , so I pad with toilet paper.
Good luck in your search to stop your incontinence before it becomes a major problem
