Incontinence can occur in men and women, at any age, but it is more common among women and the elderly, although incontinence is more common among the elderly, it is not a normal part of aging. It is a very latent theme in people's lives and this work presents the most varied types of incontinence, possible treatment methodologies, with less invasive bias, and how it should be treated in people's daily lives. In this article it is also possible to analyze how much people know about the subject and to which specialist they attribute the knowledge to the treatment. The types, symptoms, consequences, treatments and recommendations are worked on. The discussion was based on an IBOPE survey on what is the view of ordinary people with regard to urinary incontinence.
