Cover Story: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) has been associated with urinary incontinence (UI), but gestational diabetes (GD) has received little attention as an independent risk factor for UI. We explored the roles of GD and T2D, independently and in combination, on the risk of UI in 28,978 parous women enrolled in the Black Women’s Health Study, which began in 1995. After adjustment for several important variables, including age, parity, body mass index, and diuretic use, GD was associated with a 23% increased risk of weekly UI (reported in 2011) among women without a history of T2D, while there was no association observed among those women with a history of T2D. In this sample of U.S. Black women, our findings suggest that women who experience GD, even without subsequent development of T2D, might be at increased risk of UI and may benefit from early intervention. View this paper
