Condition analysis:
Anyone can develop incontinence -- the loss of bladder or bowel control causing leakage -- although certain groups are at higher risk. But it's a myth that incontinence is an expected part of growing older. Incontinence isn't normal; it reflects an underlying problem. Incontinence is a symptom, not a disease.

What is true is that the odds of developing incontinence increase with age. There are several reasons for this:

-- With aging, there is more wear-and-tear on the muscles and other tissues involved with urination and elimination, causing them to weaken and lessening their control.

-- Older women are more likely to have a history of pelvic floor disorders or vaginal prolapse as a result of childbirth or the hormonal changes of menopause.

-- Older men are more likely to have prostate problems, such as an enlarged prostate, which can block urine flow.

Instructions:
Cleavers is known as a traditional tonic for treating problems with urination. It can cure such problems as overactive bladder or cystitis. It can reduce effectively the irritation in the bladder by creating a soothing coating for the bladder.

How to use:
Prepare 2 to 3 teaspoon of cleavers with a glass of hot water
Put the herbs into hot water for 10 to 15 minutes
Consume the tea for 3 times per day until there are positive results.
