It appears, however, that detrusor contractility bladder capacity, and the ability to withhold voiding decline in both sexes; the maximal urethral closure pressure and length probably decline in women; detrusor overactivity increases in prevalence; and the post voiding residual (PVR) urine volume probably increases to 50 mL to 100 mL.
