dc.description.abstractIntroduction: The aim of this study is to investigate a usually ignored condition and determine the urinary incontinence prevalence and risk factors among women over 20 years of age in Edirne city. Materials and Methods: This descriptive and cross-sectional study is conducted in Edirne city. The study population consists of 901 adult women living in Edirne. International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire Short Form (ICIQ-SF) is used to investigate the prevalence, frequency, amount and the perceived reasons of incontinence and its effects on quality of life, along with the type of the urinary incontinence. Results: 25.2% of all participants (n = 227) had urinary incontinence. Among all participants (n = 901), 11.2% had stress incontinence (n = 101), 4.8% urge incontinence (n = 42), 6.4% mixed incontinence (n = 58) and 2.9% had unclassified urinary incontinence (n = 26). The average ICIQ-SF score of the group was 7.21 +/- 3.86. According to visual analog scale scores, that incontinence problem affected the quality of life moderately in 59.5% of the participants (n = 135). Conclusion: Majority of the incontinent individuals can be diagnosed and treated effectively at the primary care level by the family physicians. Thus, the family physicians should accurately differentiate, diagnose and treat the patients with the incontinence problem.en_US
