2. Introduction Urinary incontinence (UI) is an extremely common complaint in every part of the world. It causes a great deal of distress and embarrassment, as well as significant costs, to both individuals and societies. Stress Urinary Incontinence is the most common problems in women which are difficult to deal with, because they come with shame and embarrassment. Despite of research evidence supporting the effectiveness of behavioral therapy such as exercise training changing life style to relieving urinary incontinence, there are few demonstrations of outcomes obtained.

3. Stress incontinence is defined by the International Continence Society (ICS) as the ‘complaint of involuntary leakage of urine on effort or exertion, on sneezing or coughing’.It is usually caused by weakness or damage to muscles and connective tissues of the pelvic floor, compromising urethral support or by weakness of the urethral sphincter itself.

4. "Kegel exercises can help make the muscles under the uterus, bladder, and bowel (large intestine) stronger. They can help both men and women who have problems with urine leakage or bowel control."

5. The pelvic floor muscles control the flow of urine, the voluntary contraction of the vagina and the anal sphincter as well. The pelvic floor is composed of several layers of muscle suspended like a hammock at two points: the front and the back of the pelvis. The pressure of pregnancy increases the likelihood that the pelvic floor will sag just as a hammock does.

6. The nurse plays role as teacher or health educator enable patients to understand the need for treatment; improve patient generally positive treatment of chronic cough, constipation, increased abdominal pressure such as the primary disease. Self care is personal health maintenance. It is any activity of an individual, family or community, with the intention of improving,restoring health, treating or preventing disease.

21. Recommendations: A trial of supervised PFMT of at least three months’ duration should be offered as first-line treatment to women with stress urinary incontinence. pelvic floor exercises are beneficial and have no significant adverse effects Kagel exercise must be involved and become basic part of teaching curricula in nursing faculties. Kagel exercise should be recommended during each stage of female life cycle development. Midwifes and maternity nurse should teach woman kagel exercise to prevent SUI
