Notizen: Abstract A randomized study of the prevalence of urinary incontinence was performed among adult Finnish females. In 1986, 5247 women (aged 25–55 years) who participated voluntarily in a gynecological health study, anonymously completed a questionnaire concerning subjective symptoms and experiences with urinary incontinence. One-fifth of the studied population (20.1%) reported that they were handicapped by incontinence. The number of incontinent women increased significantly with increasing age up to 45 years. Stress urinary incontinence alone was reported by 73% of the women experiencing incontinence. Surprisingly, only one-third of the women stated that they needed treatment, and less than one-fifth of all had sought help for this disorder.
