In a study of 421 patients questioned in immediate post-partum the author observed a urinary incontinence during pregnancy in 30.6% of the cases, this figure is comparable to those found in literature. The post-partum incontinence was not observed when forceps, vacuum extraction or caesarean section have been used. The urinary disorders observed during post-partum regresses spontaneously in 68% of the cases. However, one can ask the question on whether it is not reveal a light pelvic alteration which could cumulate at each delivery, so it would be necessary to use a pelvic training.
