hólyagtréning

Hólyagtréning is a Hungarian term that translates to "bladder training" in English. It is a behavioral therapy technique used to help individuals manage conditions such as urinary incontinence, urgency, and overactive bladder. The primary goal of bladder training is to regain control over bladder function by gradually increasing the time between voids and training the bladder to hold more urine.

The process typically involves establishing a timed voiding schedule, where individuals attempt to urinate at set intervals throughout the day, regardless of the urge to go. This schedule is often started with short intervals, such as every hour, and is gradually extended as bladder capacity and control improve. When the urge to urinate arises between scheduled times, the individual is encouraged to use distraction techniques or pelvic floor exercises to suppress the urge until the next scheduled void.

Bladder training is a non-invasive and generally effective treatment. It requires patience and consistency from the individual. It is often recommended as a first-line treatment for certain types of bladder dysfunction and can be used alone or in conjunction with other therapies like medication or pelvic floor muscle exercises. A healthcare professional, such as a doctor or physical therapist specializing in pelvic health, usually guides the implementation of a personalized bladder training program.
