Most people who live with incontinence do so silently, often choosing not to tell their friends, family, or even their doctor. In this session we explore the stigma that few other common medical disorders are faced with today, along with practical interventions and ways to change the conversation.

Learning Objectives:

Discuss how “stigma” relates to incontinent patients
Discuss the prevalence of urinary and fecal incontinence
Explore the methods of decreasing the stigma related to incontinence
