Age Related Changes That Affect Bladder Function

The prostate gland in an infant boy is small but grows large enough by puberty to assist with ejaculation. With growth, the prostate gland provides further support for the pelvic floor and urethral resistance. When a girl reaches puberty, the structures of her pelvic floor mature. Estrogen hormone receptors of the urethra and pelvic floor in women help maintain pelvic floor tone and increase urethral resistance.

In men up to the age of 40, the prostate gland grows slowly and few voiding problems occur. After the age of 40 to 45 and into the seventh, eighth, or even ninth decade, the growth of the prostate gland accelerates. A change in the balance of hormones in aging men alters the prostate gland. With prostate enlargement, the base of the bladder can become distorted, and obstructing tissue can cause increasing urethral resistance. Voiding patterns vary, depending on the severity of the obstruction. Prostatism can occur, a condition marked by symptoms of frequency, urgency, and nocturia. If the obstruction continues, the bladder may not be able to empty and urinary retention can occur.

Childbirth, especially repeated deliveries, can either temporarily or permanently distort or traumatize the pelvic floor and urethral anatomy in women. However, the pelvic ligaments, muscles, and urethra are stretched during pregnancy and become lax with time especially after menopause. After menopause, levels of estrogen in the body decrease, causing the structure of the pelvic floor to atrophy and the urethral mucosa to become thin and friable. Decreasing urethral tone and mucosal coaptation further diminish urethral resistance and significant changes can lead to urinary stress incontinence. In addition, the altered urethral mucosa is more susceptible to infection.

Normal changes associated with aging combined with certain pathophysiologic conditions predisposes women to urinary incontinence. Regardless of the presence or absence of incontinence, the aging genitourinary system is physiologically altered in these ways:

*
o Bladder capacity is diminished;
o Quantity of residual urine is increased;
o Bladder contractions become uninhibited (detrusor hyperreflexia overactive bladder);
o Desire to urinate is delayed; and
o Majority of urine production occurs at rest.

Listen Kennard you pervert idiot. Robin Bain was daddy bain, not mummy bain, and you are daddy kennard who wants to be mummy kennard but mummy kennard (one of them because there have been 3 that all left you) said that you had been a naughty daddy kennard in the same way rotten robin was a naughty daddy bain but was never pregnant.

I know how extremely thick you are, not even able to comprehend that daddy bain may have already been to the toilet that morning but retaining 400mm of urine. Even your information above shows that to be a possibility. But overall fiddler ken, the problem you need to deal with is that upward trajectory shot, the extensive blood inside the barrel and one of the victims dna being found on dear daddy's shoe instead of all this pissing about. Go take a big long swig of that cheap sherry kent sent you, pop a couple of green ones, kiss your dog and then go jump in the lake.

PS. When are you going to post the page number in Joe Karam's book where he called Millie a planter?
