Introduction
Overactive bladder (OAB) is a common urological condition characterized by sudden, frequent urges to urinate, often accompanied by urgency, nighttime urination (nocturia), and, in some cases, urge urinary incontinence.
The condition occurs due to involuntary contractions of the bladder muscles, even when the bladder is not full.
Overactive bladder can significantly affect daily activities, sleep quality, work life, and emotional well-being.
With accurate diagnosis and a personalized treatment approach, symptoms can be effectively managed and quality of life greatly improved.
