How Does The Bladder Work?
Bladder urinary is a balloonshaped organ that stores and releases urine. It sits in the pelvis. Bladder urinary is supported and held in place by pelvic muscles. The bladder itself is a muscle. The tube that carries urine from your body is called the urethra. Ring-like muscles called sphincters help keep the urethra closed so urine doesn’t leak from the bladder before you’re ready to release it.
Several body systems must work together to control the bladder:
● Pelvic floor muscles hold the bladder in place.
● Sphincter muscles keep the urethra closed.
● The bladder muscle relaxes when it fills with urine and
squeezes when it’s time to urinate.
● Nerves carry signals from the bladder to let the brain
know when the bladder is full.
● Nerves also carry signals from the brain to tell the
bladder when it’s time to urinate.
● Hormones help keep the lining of the bladder and
urethra healthy.
Bladder control problems can start when any one of these features is not working properly.
