She has suffered from this problem since the birth of her fi rst child 10 years earlier, which was assisted with forceps. She is fi t and healthy, but has to wear sanitary protection all the time. Otherwise, she voids fi ve or six times a day and once at night, passing good volumes of urine without diffi culty.
