The loss of urine may be large. There are several causes of functional incontinence including confusion, dementia, poor eyesight, mobility or dexterity, unwillingness to use the toilet because of depression or anxiety or inebriation due to alcohol.<ref name="au">{{cite web|title=Functional incontinence|url=http://www.health.gov.au/internet/main/publishing.nsf/Content/continence-what-functional.htm|year=2008|publisher=Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080723150611/http://health.gov.au/internet/main/publishing.nsf/Content/continence-what-functional.htm <!-- Bot retrieved archive -->|archive-date=2008-07-23|access-date=2008-08-29}}</ref> Functional incontinence can also occur in certain circumstances where no biological or medical problem is present. For example, a person may recognize the need to urinate but may be in a situation where there is no toilet nearby or access to a toilet is restricted. * Structural incontinence: Rarely, structural problems can cause incontinence, usually diagnosed in childhood (for example, an [[ectopic ureter]]). [[Fistula]]s caused by obstetric and gynecologic trauma or injury are commonly known as [[obstetric fistula]]s and can lead to incontinence. These types of vaginal fistulas include, most commonly, vesicovaginal fistula and, more rarely, ureterovaginal fistula. These may be difficult to diagnose. The use of standard techniques along with a [[vaginogram]] or radiologically viewing the [[vaginal vault]] with instillation of contrast media.<ref name="pmid7265431">{{cite journal | vauthors = Macaluso JN, Appell RA, Sullivan JW | title = Ureterovaginal fistula detected by vaginogram | journal = JAMA | volume = 246 | issue = 12 | pages = 1339β1340 | date = September 1981 | pmid = 7265431 | doi = 10.1001/jama.246.12.1339 }}</ref> * [[Nocturnal enuresis]] is episodic UI while asleep. It is normal in young children. * Transient incontinence is temporary incontinence most often seen in pregnant women when it subsequently resolves after the birth of the child.<ref name="SangsawangSangsawang2013">{{cite journal | vauthors = Sangsawang B, Sangsawang N | title = Stress urinary incontinence in pregnant women: a review of prevalence, pathophysiology, and treatment | journal = International Urogynecology Journal | volume = 24 | issue = 6 | pages = 901β912 | date = June 2013 | pmid = 23436035 | pmc = 3671107 | doi = 10.1007/s00192-013-2061-7 }}</ref> * [[Giggle incontinence]] is an involuntary response to laughter. It usually affects children. * Double incontinence. There is also a related condition for [[defecation]] known as [[fecal incontinence]]. Due to involvement of the same muscle group ([[levator ani]]) in bladder and bowel continence, patients with urinary incontinence are more likely to have fecal incontinence in addition.<ref name="Shamliyan 2007">{{cite journal | vauthors = Shamliyan T, Wyman J, Bliss DZ, Kane RL, Wilt TJ | title = Prevention of urinary and fecal incontinence in adults | journal = Evidence Report/Technology Assessment | issue = 161 | pages = 1β379 | date = December 2007 | pmid = 18457475 | pmc = 4781595 }}</ref> This is sometimes termed "double incontinence". * [[Post-void dribbling]] is the phenomenon where urine remaining in the urethra after voiding the bladder slowly leaks out after urination. * [[Coital incontinence]] (CI) is urinary leakage that occurs during either [[coitus|penetration]] or [[orgasm]] and can occur with a sexual partner or with [[masturbation]]. It has been reported to occur in 10% to 24% of sexually active women with pelvic floor disorders.<ref>{{cite web | vauthors = Karlovsky ME | url = http://www.femalepatient.com/html/arc/sig/uroG/articles/034_08_032.asp | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20101122151307/http://www.femalepatient.com/html/arc/sig/uroG/articles/034_08_032.asp | archive-date = 22 November 2010 | title = Female Urinary Incontinence During Sexual Intercourse (Coital Incontinence): A Review | work = The Female Patient }}</ref> * [[Climacturia]] is urinary incontinence at the moment of orgasm. It can be a result of radical [[prostatectomy]].
