Unfortunately, every doctor I have been to and also physical therapists say Kegels do not affect urinary incontinence. Mine is now severe, which is why I am in heavy-duty diapers 24/7. Mine started with delivering 3 children, 2 of whom were over 9lbs, and one of them was a full transverse. The Septic Shock did me in for sure. Even having a nerve stimulator won't help me.

Sorry the pelvic PT didn't work for you. Incontinence is very hard to live with, especially following septic shock and prolapse and other stresses from delivery. Pelvic floor exercises were prescribed for me after a bike injury hygroma, and for my husband following prostate surgery. The exercises have worked for us, but our stresses have been less and the incontinence was minimal. BTW, my sports medicine doctor wasn't very good, so we found a gynecologist with sports background who was great. I call her my sports medicine gynecologist. At least those doctors are familiar with women's issues, muscle groups, and such "down there."
