Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this observational study is to observe and describe the prevalence, types, and risk factors of urinary incontinence (UI) in adult women attending primary healthcare centers in Baghdad, Iraq. The main questions it aims to answer are:

• What is the prevalence of incontinence among the targeted group?

• What are the types of incontinence and what is the frequency of each type among the targeted group?

• What is the effect of several risk factors on the occurrence and severity of urinary incontinence (including age, job, sexual activity, chronic constipation, chronic cough, parity, largest birth weight, and body mass index)? Participants will be asked to fill out a questionnaire consisting of the Arabic International Consultation On Incontinence Questionnaire-Urinary Incontinence Short Form (Arabic ICIQ-UI SF) in addition to questions about the aforementioned risk factors.
