Why was HappySneeze created?
1 in 2 women have urinary incontinence. Incontinence is a taboo topic and women take on average 6 years to tell their provider. Lack of specialist care, makes it hard for Providers to support their patients with affordable and feasible treatment options that do not require travel for in-person visits for parents of babies and young children. As a result, patients do not get timely care, especially in BIPOC and Rural communities. Currently, 1 in 2 women has urinary incontinence, and 1 in 5 will have incontinence surgery in their lifetime.
