8. Make Changes to Your OAB Management Plan Now
It can take several weeks to start noticing a difference, even if you’ve been doing your Kegel exercises daily, and have avoided all your trigger foods. If you think you could be managing your OAB better, see your doctor right away to revisit your strategy, and work new therapies into your routine now so you can start to see results before the holidays are upon you.
Bladder retraining can be one of the most effective strategies to take back control, and the more time you devote to it, the better the results. Try to take some time to yourself to relax, meditate, and practice your pelvic floor exercises every day. Taking control over your body means balancing work and rest, so all your organs can function more efficiently.
Traveling with OAB will likely complicate your preparations a bit, but you’ll be happy you took the time to plan well and prepare along the way.
