- Title
Trial suggests that weight-loss regimens may alleviate incontinence in postmenopausal women.
- Abstract
The article reports on the study conducted by researchers from the Obstetrics and Gynecology department at the University of California. A total of 338 overweight and obese women were assigned randomly to either a 6-month weight-loss program or to a four-session-long educational program on weight loss, physical activity and healthy eating. Moreover, the study suggests that weight-loss regimens might be an effective way of treating urinary incontinence in postmenopausal women.
