LOBC, or loss of bladder control, is a condition that affects millions worldwide and more specifically, 25 million Americans each year. LOBC can be mild or severe and may go untreated in the person’s lifetime if not too bothersome. In fact, 2 out of 3 of the sufferers are found to not use any product or treatment to manage incontinence.
