Report Outlook

The global underactive bladder market size and share was valued at USD 458.99 million in 2023 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.3% during the forecast period.

An underactive bladder is a condition where the bladder experiences reduced strength and duration of contraction, resulting in prolonged bladder emptying or inability to empty the bladder within a normal period.

The global underactive bladder market is anticipated to grow significantly in the coming years due to several factors, such as the increasing geriatric population. As people age, the muscles in the bladder become weaker, leading to a decrease in bladder function and an increase in the likelihood of underactive bladders. With the number of people aged 65 and older projected to reach nearly 2 Million by 2050, the demand for effective treatments and products that can help manage this condition is expected to rise. Advances in medical technology have also played a crucial role in the growth of the underactive bladder market. New medications, surgical procedures, and non-invasive devices have been developed to improve bladder function and alleviate symptoms associated with underactive bladders. These technological advancements have made it easier for patients to access effective treatments, further fueling market growth.

Growth Drivers

Increasing prevalence of urinary incontinence

Urinary incontinence, which affects millions of people worldwide, is the loss of bladder control, resulting in involuntary leakage of urine. This condition can be caused by various factors such as age, obesity, childbirth, and neurological disorders. As the global population ages, the prevalence of urinary incontinence is expected to increase, leading to a growing demand for effective treatments.

Underactive bladder, also known as detrusor underactivity, is a type of urinary incontinence that occurs when the muscles in the bladder wall are weakened, reducing the ability to contract and release urine effectively. The rising incidence of urinary incontinence has created a need for alternative treatment options, including drugs, devices, and surgery, driving the growth of the underactive bladder market. As a result, the increasing prevalence of urinary incontinence drives market growth.

By Treatment Type Analysis

The urethral assist devices held the dominating revenue share in 2023.

The urethral assist device held the dominant revenue share in the underactive bladder market in 2023 due to its ability to effectively treat urinary retention and Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH). These devices are designed to support the urethra and help improve urine flow, reducing the symptoms of an underactive bladder. They are particularly useful for patients who have difficulty urinating or experience frequent urination, which are common symptoms of underactive bladders. Additionally, urethral assist devices are minimally invasive and can be easily inserted and removed, making them a preferred choice among patients and healthcare providers.

By End User Analysis

Hospitals segment dominated the global market in 2023.

The hospital segment dominated the global underactive bladder market in 2023 owing to several factors.
