Mary (61 years)

Mary, 61 years old, loves to host bingo nights at the local community centre. Since 5 months, she needs to wake up at night to void 2-3 times. It has a significant impact on the quality of her sleep and the quality of her life. During the day, she occasionally loses urine with urgency before reaching the toilet. Bladder training and advice on fluid management did not help.
