Bladder ReTraining
Bladder Retraining
Bladder retraining should only be done after having consulted your Doctor, Continence Advisor or health professional.
Bladder retraining is based on passing urine by the clock at regular intervals. If holding on is difficult, distract yourself by watching TV or making a phone call
Days 1 and 2- Start by choosing an interval you feel fairly confident you can achieve, such as 1-2 hours. Continue this for 2 days
Days 3 and 4- Increase the interval between emptying by 15 minutes. Continue with this interval for 2 days
Day 5 onwards- When you are comfortable with the extra 15 minutes, increase it again. As each interval becomes manageable, increase it again
