Explanation

Incomplete bladder emptying in women can be uncomfortable and may lead to other health issues. Understanding the cause is key to finding the right treatment.

Treatment Options:

  1. Lifestyle Changes: Sometimes, simple changes like drinking more water or going to the bathroom at regular times can help.
  2. Medications: Doctors might give medicines that help the bladder muscles work better.
  3. Catheterization: If the bladder doesn't empty by itself, a tube called a catheter might be needed to help.
  4. Surgery: In some cases, surgery might be needed to fix the problem.

Each treatment works differently, and what works best depends on what's causing the bladder not to empty fully. It's important to talk to a healthcare professional to find the best plan.
