THREE years ago, whenever Jeyalachumy Shanmugam laughed, she leaked. Whenever the 51-year-old sundry shop owner coughed, she leaked. Whenever she strained, she leaked.  

Jeyalachumy suffered from urinary incontinence. And it was an embarrassing and inconvenient experience for her. “I had to use pads and napkins as I could not afford disposable diapers,” she related. “And I had to shower three or four times a day as it was very smelly.”
