DALLAS, April 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Did you know one in three women experience light bladder leakage (LBL) – common little leaks that can be triggered by simple, everyday occurrences like coughing, sneezing, laughing and even exercise? Yet many women rely on feminine care products or nothing at all to manage their LBL because they don't know there are solutions designed specifically for leaks or they just don't think incontinence products are for them. But that's all going to change! Poise brand (www.poise.com) continues to reinvigorate the light incontinence category while helping women manage little leaks with confidence, with the launch of new, shockingly thin and surprisingly absorbent Poise Microliners, featuring SAM (Super Absorbent Material).
