Yes, you are immediately able to hold for several hours with the AUS.
I would wake up in the morning, And you know how full your bladder is in the morning, And I would read the news for an hour, not worrying about it. Yes, I felt full. I felt like I needed to pee, but no urgency to Do it immediately. And I knew I would not leak.
I immediately had relief and was able to go the whole night. During the day I would wait until I really felt I had to go. Of course, sometimes you don’t wait that long, If you’re going out, you pee before you leave.
