No, it’s not normal to accidentally pee yourself. While it’s often joked about and sometimes even normalized (how many times have you seen a movie where a mom laughs about peeing herself?), the truth is that your muscles are supposed to prevent leakage. If you’re experiencing leakage, it means those muscles aren’t doing their job effectively.
That’s where pelvic PT comes in. Pelvic physical therapists can examine and treat these muscles, helping to retrain them so they function properly and stop the leaks. You don’t have to just live with it—there’s help available!
