How is male incontinence diagnosed?
Tests that may be done to find the type and cause of your urinary incontinence include:
- Urinalysis and urine culture.
- Voiding diary
- Uroflowmetry. This test measures your rate of urine flow. A low peak flow rate can be a sign of a blockage or a weak bladder.
- Pressure flow studies. This testing measures pressure changes in the bladder as the flow changes. It is often used when the cause of a man's symptoms is uncertain. It can help show if the cause may be a blockage or a problem with the bladder muscles or nerves.
- Post-void residual volume. This test measures the amount of urine left after you empty your bladder.
- Cystometrogram (CMG). This test measures how well your bladder can store and release urine.
- Cystoscopy
