Thank you for visiting ABLinfo.org and for your editorial interest in raising awareness about accidental bowel leakage. Though ABL affects 30 million people, less than one in three talk about it with their healthcare provider. We have many resources to share so that you can include ABL in your everyday health and wellness articles. ABL editorial topics may include the causes of ABL, bowel health, pelvic health and wellness, childbirth, menopause, diabetes, healthy aging and men’s health.
If there is something you need which is not here, don’t hesitate to contact Kelley Connors, .
