It's Taboo!
Taboo and Whoopi don’t seem like an ideal match. But, sometimes it takes candor and a sense of humor to cure your “taboos”.
Our Real Women on Health fabulous women’s advocate Missy Lavender joined the View with Whoopi to speak out on a condition affecting one in three women: Light Bladder Leakage. Missy calls it a “spritz” and Whoopi says it’s not like turning on a faucet. Not to be confused with overactive bladder, light bladder leakage has many causes such as pregnancy, diabetes, nerve damage, pelvic surgery and many others.
