Overactive Bladder - Risks & Causes

Overactive Bladder - Risks & Causes

Overactive bladder is caused by involuntary bladder muscle contractions as the bladder fills. This condition is believed to be due to malfunctioning of the bladder nerves. Risk factors for overactive bladder include age, obesity, pelvic surgery and the presence of neurological conditions such as stroke, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis and diabetes.
