Abstract
Objective: To well-built the self-efficacy of menopausal women with urinary incontinence for being able to master challenging demands by means of adaptive action in dealing and treat the incontinence. Methodology: Descriptive non probability study conducted on 200 menopausal women (45-65) years old with urinary incontinence. Results: the study found that (74%) they are married and (43.5%) was illiterate. Women in this study had (19%) urge incontinence, (16.5%) stress incontinence with (38%) having mixed incontinence while (10.5%) mild incontinence with 38.5% having sever incontinence. And the results show that there is statistically highly significant between the item 1 (If someone opposes me; I can find the means and ways to get what I want) and degree of urinary incontinence, a significant correlation between the item 3 (It is easy for me to stick to my aims and accomplish my goals) with the types of urinary incontinence and A significant correlation between the item 10 (I can usually handle whatever comes in my way)and duration of urinary incontinence. The findings suggest constructing a strategy to help women maintain self-efficacy for a positive approach to outcome and greater beliefs in their general coping abilities and ability to deal with and the expected efficacy of treatment and coping with urinary incontinence.
