How Catherine Regained Bladder Control and Confidence with Kegel8

My name is Catherine, and I am 45 years old with two sons, aged 17 and 20. After delivering my babies naturally, I didn’t experience any bladder issues until I reached 40.

"On several occasions... I wet myself. Right next to the toilet."

This experience was incredibly upsetting for Catherine, and like many people living with bladder urgency and neurological symptoms, she worried that things might gradually get worse over time. Concerns about conditions such as MS and neurological bladder dysfunction only added to the anxiety and uncertainty she was already feeling.

That’s when Catherine discovered Kegel8.

Wanting to find an effective way to improve her bladder control and strengthen her pelvic floor muscles at home, she decided to try the Kegel8 Ultra 20 pelvic toner.

“At first, progress felt slow,” Catherine explains. “It took around 13 weeks before I noticed any real difference, but I understood that with neurological bladder symptoms, improvement might simply take a little longer.”

Then, after around 25 weeks of regular use, Catherine says something changed completely.

“I finally started to feel like myself again.”

Today, Catherine continues using her Kegel8 Ultra 20 every other day as part of her ongoing pelvic floor care routine. On the rare occasions she stops using it for a couple of weeks, she notices her bladder urgency symptoms beginning to return — something that reassures her just how important her Kegel8 routine has become in helping manage her symptoms.

“I Love the Team at Kegel8”

For Catherine, the support she received from the Kegel8 team became just as important as the product itself.

“Whenever I contacted customer services feeling worried or upset, I always came away feeling reassured, understood, and supported.”

Like so many people living with urge incontinence, bladder weakness, or pelvic floor dysfunction, Catherine initially felt embarrassed talking about her symptoms. But she quickly realised she was speaking to people who genuinely understood what she was going through.

“Sometimes I’d even end up laughing with the team after feeling embarrassed at the start of the call. They made me feel completely normal.”

At Kegel8, we understand how emotional and isolating bladder problems can feel — and we are so grateful to Catherine for sharing her story so openly and honestly. Real experiences like hers help other women and men understand that they are not alone, and that effective, at-home pelvic floor support really does exist.
