First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether a magnetic stimulation chair can help women with sudden, strong urges to urinate that lead to leaks. 70 women received either real or sham magnetic stimulation while sitting fully clothed. Researchers measured changes in bladder diary entries, questionnaires, and urodynamic tests to see if the treatment reduces symptoms and improves daily life.
