Wellness Wednesday: Out of the (water) closet

Trouble with incontinence can cause problems with body image, self esteem and confidence. It can also interfere with a woman's social life and her ability to stay fit.

And just so you know, this post is serving both as your Structure Sunday and Medical Monday posts for two reasons:

Many thanks for your patience,
