Having an overactive bladder is considered a taboo subject, but it's actually a very common condition.

One in two women will suffer from urinary incontinence at some point in their lives, which can mean either stress incontinence or overactive bladder.

#InControl is a national campaign which aims to raise awareness of the condition, and people who suffer from an overactive bladder can find out more at OAB.ie.

Professor Barry O'Reilly, obstetrician and gynaecologist at Cork University Hospital, joined us for our weekly medical consultation to talk about the symptoms, causes and treatments available.
