I have a dilemma. About a month ago the vet diagnosed Teagan with hormonal incontinent. He prescribed her DES. At the beginning she was on half a tablet every day for three days and half a tablet every second day for the rest of the week and than the second week she was on one tablet a week.
The DES never seemed to help. I was still putting diapers on her at night just in case. She never peed in them every night, but she was still peeing in them ever 2-3 night.
I called the vet and he suggested that I up her dose again to half a tablet for every second day than every third day and so on.
Well last night while watching TV Teagan peed all over the couch.
I don't know if I should give the DES some more time or what.
Also, the vet said if the DES does not work than he wants to do a bunch of blood work than try proin.
Which I really don't want to try. After reading this thread on another forum it kinnda scared me a bit.

So if you were in my situation what would you do? Because I really don't know what direction if I should go.
Also I found there is a natural product I could try called "leak no more" I might see if that would work.
Another question can you guys think of any other issue that might cause incontinence while relaxed?
