Ever laugh too hard and feel that dreaded drip? You’re not alone — bladder leaks affect about 1 in 3 women, yet most of us may prefer to keep it private.
From postpartum moms to women in menopause, “oops moments” are quite common. But a quiet revolution is underway in women’s health, and it’s not about Kegels or surgery. It’s about a simple, wearable device that is helping women manage leaks and regain confidence in their daily lives.
One solution to managing bladder leaks is Elitone, a small, external device designed to support pelvic floor muscle function. The Elitone device uses gentle stimulation to strengthen and relax pelvic floor muscles, providing a non-invasive option for women looking to address this issue.
Why Bladder Leaks Happen (and Why It’s Not Your Fault)
Your pelvic floor muscles act like a hammock holding up your bladder and uterus.
Childbirth, hormonal changes, and even high-impact workouts can weaken those muscles. So when you laugh, sneeze, or lift something heavy, the bladder might not hold tight fast enough — and that’s when leaks may happen.
This is called stress urinary incontinence (SUI), and it’s fairly common. Others experience overactive bladder (OAB), where the bladder sends sudden, uncontrollable signals to go.
Despite how common it is, fewer than 25% of women bring it up with their doctor — often because they think it’s “just part of being a woman.” But this is not necessarily the case.
A Practical Solution in Women’s Health
Elitone is one of the FDA-cleared, 100% external devices designed to help with bladder leaks discreetly.
Instead of inserting anything vaginally, it uses a soft, flexible GelPad worn on the skin over the pelvic region. The device sends gentle stimulation that helps contract and relax your pelvic floor muscles — essentially performing up to 100 Kegels for you.
There’s also Elitone URGE, designed to help calm the bladder for women who experience sudden urges.
Because it’s silent, wearable, and rechargeable, women can use it while working, doing chores, or relaxing — and no one needs to know.
In clinical studies, most women reported up to a 70% reduction in leaks within six weeks, with improved confidence and comfort in daily life.
Confidence, Comfort, and Control — Restored
For Jo, the change was life-changing.
“Within a few weeks, I noticed fewer leaks and more confidence,” she says. “I could finally jump, laugh, or run after my kids without worrying. It gave me back a sense of freedom.”
Thousands of women report similar stories — rediscovering their bodies, confidence, and joy in the everyday moments they once avoided.
The Bottom Line
Bladder leaks aren’t just a physical inconvenience — they can quietly erode confidence and limit how women live their lives.
But they’re also highly treatable, and thanks to innovations like Elitone, women can finally address leaks privately, effectively, and without surgery or shame.
If you’re one of the millions of women dealing with leaks, know this: it’s not your fault, and it’s not something you need to live with.
There’s a quiet revolution in progress — and women everywhere are finding ways to laugh again, with fewer leaks.
