1 The model showing an association between UI and IIQ-7 found that age ≥60 years (1.57 (1.0, 2.8)); no. of pregnancies 1–4 (1.84 (1.0, 3.36)) and having DM (1.55 (1.13, 2.13)) were also significant. 2 The model showing an association between UI and K-10 found that the no. of pregnancies (1–4) was (1.95 (1.1, 3.8)) significant. 3 The model showing an association between UI and self-esteem found that none of the adjusted factors were significant. 4 Inquired from married mothers only. The model showing an association between UI and sexual health found that overweight (2.37 (1.32, 4.28)) and obesity (1.93 (1.15, 3.24)) were significant. 5 UDI-6 was categorized into severe and less severe based on the cut-off of 33.33. Values in bold signify p < 0.05.
