简要总结
This cross-sectional study investigates the impact of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) on anxiety, sleep quality, and overall quality of life (QoL) among young collegiate females aged 18-25. SUI, the involuntary leakage of urine during activities that increase intra-abdominal pressure, is often underreported in younger women, yet it can cause significant physical, psychological, and social challenges. The study aims to assess the prevalence of SUI in this population and explore its associations with anxiety (measured by PSS), sleep quality (using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index), and overall QoL (via the SF-36 Health Survey). Participants with other urinary or chronic conditions, recent pregnancies, or pelvic surgeries are excluded. The findings are expected to highlight the overlooked impact of SUI in young women, advocating for early identification and management of this condition to improve their mental well-being, sleep patterns, and overall quality of life.
