Urinary Incontinence (UI) is a common symptom at some stages of a woman's life. It has an important negative impact on women's daily activities and can adversely affect their quality of life. Objective: To investigate the profile of women with urinary incontinence (UI) seen at an urological treatment center, according to the type of UI present. Methods: This descriptive, exploratory, quantitative study was conducted with 150 women with UI who had undergone urodynamic study at an urological treatment center in Sao Jose do Rio Preto, SP, Brazil. The research methodology followed for this research was based on the collection of primary and secondary data, which were analyzed using univariate and multivariate analysis of variance. Results: Most women were white (119-79.33%), overweight (68-45.33%), homemakers (58-38.7%), and menopausal (80-53.3%); drank coffee (124-82.67%); did not perform any physical activity (98-65.33%); and had urethral hypermobility (UH) ((91-60.67%). One hundred and forty-two women had gone through childbirth. There were 331 deliveries, of which 54.98% were cesarean sections. We found a statistically significant association between weight change and type of UI (p = 0.024); menopause (p=0.001) and intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD) and detrusor instability (DI); gynecological surgery and ISD and DI (p = 0.014); hysterectomy and all types of UI (p = 0.040); and performance of physical activity and mixed UI (p = 0.014). Conclusion: The obtained data suggest that the prevention and control of UI include measures such as weight loss (decrease in BMI), exercise, pelvic floor-strengthening exercises and improved care at primary healthcare level. This subject offers a fertile field for investigation regarding diagnosis, treatment and new inter-and multiprofessional care delivery models that improve the quality of life of women with UI.
