In the present study we analysed a consecutive series of urodynamic test results to determine the distribution of the different types of UI in pre- and post-menopausal women. We hypothesised that the prevalence of urodynamic stress incontinence (USI) would be significantly greater in pre-menopausal than in post-menopausal women.<\/jats:p>\n            <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n              <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n              <jats:p>All women from a large tertiary urogynaecology department, who underwent urodynamic tests during the years 2000\u20132015 were included.

A bimodal pattern of age was seen in women with USI, with a peak in the 46\u201350 and 61\u201365 age group, before decreasing with age. DO generally increased with age. USI with concomitant DO increased steadily after the menopause, becoming the predominant type after the age of 66.<\/jats:p>\n            <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n              <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n              <jats:p>In this large cohort of women attending urodynamics, we have shown that USI is the predominant type of incontinence in pre-menopausal women; however, USI with concomitant DO increases after menopause, eventually predominating.<\/jats:p>\n            <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00192-024-05876-3","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,23]],"date-time":"2024-07-23T12:19:01Z","timestamp":1721737141000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Does Urodynamic Stress Incontinence Increase After the Menopause?: Results from 2,994 Urodynamic Studies in Australian Women"],"prefix":"10.1007","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7065-5115","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nevine","family":"te West","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Katie","family":"Harris","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael","family":"Chapman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kate Hilda","family":"Moore","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"5876_CR1","unstructured":"Hawthorne G.
