A detailed history, pelvic exam, urine analysis and culture, post-void residual, and urodynamic testing is done for women who complain of loss of urine. A diary of your urination habits, including how often you urinate and how much fluid you drink, is important at identifying women at risk for stress or urges incontinence.

Women often have to see a Urologist who can perform special tests called urodynamic testing and cystoscopy, to make an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.
